Jorge Mendes: the most powerful man in football?

Though nothing new to many, I found this Guardian article very interesting.

The winner of the transfer market is Jorge Mendes, who this summer was involved in deals which totalled 400 million Euros. (Diario Sport)
Mendes' wedding was attended by players & presidents (Perez & Abramovich), which reflects his extensive contacts in the game (Diario Sport)
Mendes regularly does business in Portugal with Benfica and Porto; in Spain with Real Madrid, Atletico, Valencia and Deportivo La Coruña.
Mendes' regularly does business in England with ‪#‎CFC‬ & ‪#‎MUFC‬; and with Monaco [France], Besiktas [Turkey] and Zenit [Russia]. (Diario Sport)

I can't believe he was given a Greek island as a wedding present from his best man, Cristiano Ronaldo

Good place for Perez & Woodward to discuss future bantz with Mendes imo

He has been fcking all of his players with bad deals handling their image rights deals. They all being accused of fraud in Spain right now.

Today Di Maria was condemned to pay more than 2 mil back.

All other big names are involved. CR, Pepe, Mourinho, all from their time in Madrid

Pretty sure some of the Atletico and valencia guys will be caught into this too

Well done

Mendes is being the whole A Bola ronaldo wants to leave, his fine is the biggest

James being investigate Now they will fck Mendes right out of Spain with his mafia

any chance these guys drop him? Raiola is gonna be the most powerful man in football IMO

And now the Mbappe family have hired Mendes to oversee the next transfer according to Le Parisien
