When Edouard Mendy arrived at Chelsea in 2020, he managed to establish himself as a last bastion and great insurance in goal. But since last season, the Senegalese goalkeeper of the Blues has gradually lost credibility to the point of passing behind Kepa in the hierarchy of goalkeepers of the London club. His situation is closely monitored by various clubs, including Milan.
Looking for a strong competitor and above all in the face of the injury of Mike Maignan who is still absent, the Rossoneri have ticked the name of Edouard Mendy in the list of probable future signings. According to Corriere della Sera, the 30-year-old Senegalese goalkeeper is Milan’s plan B to alleviate the French goalkeeper’s physical problems this season. His profile is ideal for Milan who are thinking of hiring a goalkeeper who is immediately available and at an affordable price.
