DBasia.news – According to news published by Marca, Real Madrid are monitoring the situation of Ferland Mendy in France. The left area of Madrid’s defense is one of the focuses that Zinedine Zidane wants to fix in the summer.
The 23-year-old Zidane has the right profile to compete with Marcelo in that position. Mendy, along with Olympique Lyonnais, has made 39 appearances this season and scored and provided three assists.
Mendy was plotted to become a successor for Marcelo in the future. While the other left back, Sergio Reguilon, will be loaned to another club as Zidane has trusted Marcelo to play in that position.
Just like Marcelo, the Le Havre’s academy products also had creativity when they went up to help attack and left-handed legs. Mendy became Madrid’s transfer priority as Zidane liked him more than Alex Grimaldo, Junior Firpo, or David Alaba.
In addition to Madrid, Napoli, Sevilla and Barcelona are also eyeing the player born in Meulan-en-Yvelines, June 8, 1995. Lyon is predicted to release him at the official price of 35 to 40 million euros.
