Jorge Mendes becomes agent for promising 14-year old Real Madrid talent
Jorge Mendes, one of the most powerful agents in world football, has added another young player to his roster of clients. Mendes, who has a strong relationship with Barcelona’s board, has recently taken over the representation of 14-year-old Real Madrid starlet Guillermo Ponce, according to Relevo.
Ponce, who is part of Real Madrid’s Infantil A squad, is a highly-rated goalkeeper who has been described as the “most differential” player in the youth system at the club. He is seen as a promising talent for the future and is expected to make his mark on the senior team in the years to come.
Mendes, who already represents Real Madrid’s Marco Asensio, has been expanding his clientele to include more young players in recent times. He also recently took over the representation of Lamine Yamal, who made his debut for Barcelona at the age of 15.
Asensio’s contract at Real Madrid is set to expire this summer, and his future at the club remains uncertain. It remains to be seen whether Mendes’ involvement will have any impact on negotiations between the player and the club.
Real Madrid will be hoping that Ponce can follow in the footsteps of other young talents at the club and make a name for himself in the coming years. With Mendes on board as his agent, the club will be hoping that Ponce can develop into a top-class goalkeeper and play a key role in the team’s success in the future.
