Cristiano Ronaldo's former agent was nowhere to be seen as the ex-Manchester United forward celebrated his 38th birthday over the weekend.
Ronaldo, who joined Saudi title contenders Al-Nassr after leaving United by mutual agreement in November, shared photos of his celebrations in Riyadh. He was there with Ricardo Regufe, his new manager, but there was no room for Mendes after the 57-year-old played no part in the veteran forward's move to the Gulf state.
Mendes failed to secure Ronaldo a summer move to a Champions League club after the veteran's second spell at Old Trafford appeared to be coming to an end. When Ronaldo found his new club, signing a deal worth a reported £173m per year, his compatriot was noticeably absent.
