The agreement has been taking shape throughout the summer. MARCA announced at the European Championship that Mendy had been seen in Valdebebas accepting the proposal that had been put on the table. This has happened and in the next few days the aforementioned contract extension will be made official for a player who the Madrid manager considers essential to his idea of football and to achieve the defensive balance necessary in such an offensive team. A circumstance that was evident in last Saturday's match against Real Sociedad, forcing an offside when he was alone against three forwards from the San Sebastian team. Perfect reading of the game and a manual on how a defender should act.

  3. Mendy probably underrated at this point. His health has been an issue, but when he’s fit, he’s an excellent LB.

  4. The current status of our players with contracts that end in 2025

    Lunin✅: renewed to 2030

    Mendy✅: renewed to 2027

    Carvajal⏳: The club has clear intentions of offering another season and he’s made it clear he’s not going to object to the one year policy so it’s a matter of time

    Modric❔: I think there is a 10% chance he gets another seasons but so far it seems like this is going to be his final season with us (please retire just like Kroos)

    Vasquez❔: I think there is a 50:50 chances he gets another season, probably depends on the prospect of signing Trent in the summber

    Vallejo❌: Nothing is guaranteed but there is a 0.01% chance he gets a contract extension. 99.99% chance he’s out

  5. LBvinga dreams are ruined 😤

    Joke aside, I’m glad. He’s a great player, underrated because of his last couple games. Very solid defensively, in fact one of the best easily.

  7. Best defensive LB in the world for a few years now, happy with the news.

  10. Very good defensively, but provides far too little offensively, does not have the techical quality.

    He does not have to be an offensive beast 🙂 like Marcelo/R. Carlos but at big clubs the fullbacks have to be good offensively.

    Real needs a better LB.
