The Senegal international has rejected the London club’s offer of an extension and is asking for the same salary as Kepa, L’attacker.com has learned.
While he has lost his number 1 goalkeeper status for the Blues, Edouard Mendy finds the new contract that the club officials recently offered him disrespectful. To date still no agreement between Edouard Mendy and Chelsea for the extension of the contract. The Senegalese goalkeeper would have snubbed a new contract offer from the English club. According to The Sun, the former Rennes goalkeeper has turned down a “disrespectful” six-year contract offered to him by his club, as he is followed by AC Milan, Nice and AS Monaco.
Edouard Mendy wants to be equal to Kepa
In other words, he finds that Chelsea don’t show him enough respect for his salary. Édouard Mendy wants to be paid like his teammate, Kepa Arrizabalaga. Currently, Édouard Mendy earns around 100,000 euros a week and wants the same salary as his Spanish rival, who earns him almost double. For their part, the leaders have withdrawn their long-term extension offer as he continues the standoff with the player.
