Ferland Mendy has remained at Real Madrid despite the fact that his situation is not encouraging. Carlo Ancelotti told him from the first moment that he did not have it and that his confidence in his abilities was zero, and this does not surprise anyone, since he already told him the same thing last summer. But unlike the previous course, in the current one he has enough alternatives to distinguish between the left-back.
Because the signing of Fran Garcia promises to solve most of the problems that existed on the strip, where Eduardo Camavinga, David Alaba or Nacho Fernandez can also operate, although a priori it is expected that they will occupy other demarcation lines. So “23” is in for a difficult year, in which he will spend more time on the bench than on the field. And even in the stands, if he continues with the injury problem that has been haunting him for a long time.
And the fact is that the French international turned out to be a footballer with many physical problems and has lost a large number of games since he landed at the Santiago Bernabéu in 2019. Therefore, it is logical that they tried to transfer it as soon as possible in order to recover most of the investment they made at the time. However, the offers weren’t strong enough to open doors for you.
Mendy, moreover, was not particularly interested in leaving Madrid, where he has a valid contract. Actually, The 28-year-old defender’s priority is to sign a new contract and stay longer. For this reason, his agent personally contacted Florentino Perez to try to bring the positions closer and reach an agreement on a contract extension. An idea that was completely rejected by the president.
He doesn’t think the former Lyon, Le Havre or Paris Saint-Germain player has done anything worthy of a contract extension. and put it back up for sale as soon as he gets the chance.
Florentino Perez forced to lower the price of mehndi
Although, seeing that no one dared to pay the 40 million euros he asked for Mendy, Florentino Perez will be forced to significantly reduce the starting price he asked for him. And Madrid will agree to less than 30 “kilograms”.
Thus, This would leave room for the possible arrival of Alphonso Davies or another candidate for the position.
