In light of the fact that Ferland Mendy’s contract with Real Madrid is scheduled to expire in 2025, rumors over the Frenchman’s future at Real Madrid has been a persistent subject of concern over the last several months.
Injuries have been a significant burden for the player, and he has not been able to get continuous playing time. As a result, Mendy has had a significant amount of difficulty.
The left-back, on the other hand, has been enjoying a strong run of form, particularly shining in the most recent Clasico, which saw Real Madrid prevail over Barcelona with a commanding 4-1 victory.
Renewal is being taken into consideration
Jose Felix Diaz of the Massachusetts Athletic Association (MARCA) reports that there are now voices inside the club who are starting to advocate for Ferland Mendy’s contract to be extended.
As a matter of fact, Carlo Ancelotti went so far as to assert that Mendel is the finest left-back in the world defensively, lavishing him with praise.
The Italian coach does not have any reservations about including the French defender in the starting lineup when he is in good enough mental and physical condition.
The contributions that Mendy makes to the defense and the balance that he produces have made him a vital component of the Real Madrid club, despite the fact that he may not be the most elegant player moving forward.
If there is one thing that the left-back has shown during all of these years as a player for Real Madrid, it is not just physical strength but also mental toughness.
He has shown the capacity to deal not only with worries over injuries, but also with the persistent rumors that come from the media regarding possible reinforcements for his position. For example, Alphonso Davies has been associated with the Merengues on a number of times.
Because there have been no suggestions for Mendy’s renewal as of yet, and because other clubs have made queries about him, as well as the fact that Chelsea is also interested in him as a potential reinforcement, Mendy’s future has seemed to be far away from the Merengues.
On the other hand, the 28-year-old player is aware that he has the utmost trust and support imaginable with Ancelotti sitting on the bench, and the potential of a contract extension is no longer something that can be entirely ruled out.
