Injured, Édouard Mendy “would not be in a hurry” to find his teammates

Away from the lawns for quite a while, the Senegalese international Édouard Mendy, who had recourse to an operation on a finger following a fracture contracted in training, a few weeks ago now, is not not too excited about the idea of ​​making a comeback. Indeed, according to information from the British media Telegraph, the African champion is in no hurry to find his teammates, in great difficulty, who remain on a series of 6 games without a win in the league. ” Mendy is not apparently in no rush to return from an operation“, writes the newspaper ” while the 30-year-old doorman was expected to at least train with the group“, he continues.

The British daily also notes that this week the English club released a short documentary about the goalkeepers and their training, and Mendy wasn’t even mentioned. ” We have the feeling that, without an extension of his contract, Édouard Mendy is excluded from the present as well as from the future “, comments the newspaper. For now, the contract extension of the Senegalese goalkeeper, linked with Chelsea until June 30, 2025, is at a standstill. Édouard Mendy had rejected the offer of the leaders of the Blues which he had considered insufficient in relation to his performance. However, this situation should settle the formations which had expressed their interest in the best goalkeeper of the season (2021), in particular OGC Nice, AS Monaco and AC Milan.
