The hot streak of Real Madrid has confirmed the good moment of some players. Among them, Ferland mendy. The left-back arrived in the capital as a stranger to most fans and in two seasons he has earned the trust of the club. Such is his relevance that he has managed to close the doubts about the side by removing the starting position from a historic man like Marcelo.
Mendy, at 25, has established himself in the elite after arriving in the capital in the summer of 2019. The statistics support him and the role he has given him Zidane in his rotations scheme as well. Mendy is the owner of Real Madrid and this will continue to be the case for the next few months except for a last minute change. Something that is not surprising either, given that it was the express request of the French.
The white coach, who has already shown his good eye with young talents on other occasions, asked the Real Madrid leadership to jump in for Mendy. The side was drawing attention to the Lyon and Zidane saw in him enough potential to succeed at Real Madrid. The club listened to him and took advantage of the opportunity: less than 50 million made Mendy the new side of the white team.
His growth at Lyon was being remarkable and the goal was for him not to decline. Something that has ended up being fulfilled. According to the specialized portal Transfermarkt, since he signed for Real Madrid, he has managed to maintain his market growth and is already in the 40 million euros. Despite some ups and downs and the competition that exists in the capital’s box, it continues without losing its value.
Fixed in Madrid
The season couldn’t have started better for Mendy. In Champions he has played absolutely everything and is the undisputed holder of Real Madrid. In La Liga the line has been very similar and except for some substitution, the French defender has been chosen by Zidane to start the game. Among other duels, Mendy was chosen before him Atlético de Madrid or FC Barcelona. Presences that reaffirm Zidane’s confidence.
When it comes to the Champions League, Mendy can’t ask for more. He has played 90 minutes of each game in which Real Madrid has met. 100% of presences that have been valid for the merengue team to have finished leader, the only Spanish club to do so this season, of the group of the continental competition.
