Real Madrid continues to target Paris Saint-Germain and its president, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, who has suffered another defeat to the Spanish club following the loss of Mbappe. The French team is looking to retaliate after Real Madrid secured their star player, Kylian Mbappe, without paying a transfer fee.
According to Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, Paris Saint-Germain intended to sign Ferland Mendy, the world’s top defensive player whose contract runs until 2025, on a free transfer, mimicking the Mbappe situation. However, after months of consideration and weeks of intense negotiations, Real Madrid has reached a verbal agreement with Mendy to extend his contract until 2027. The final step is the official signing.
Paris Saint-Germain won’t be able to seek retribution for Mbappe’s transfer to Madrid, and Ancelotti will continue to depend on one of his key players, Ferland Mendy. Mendy, regarded as the best defensive back in the world, provides significant balance to Real Madrid. His continued presence is excellent news for Real Madrid fans, as the team is highly offensive and needs players like Mendy, who excel at defending and supporting their teammates.
The newspaper concluded by addressing concerns about his consistency and injury history, as he had struggled with numerous injuries in recent seasons, impacting his performance. However, he was largely injury-free last season and played a crucial role in Real Madrid’s victories in both the Spanish League and the Champions League. Although the player prioritized staying at Real Madrid, he sought recognition and appreciation, both professionally and financially, due to better offers from other clubs.
