Real Madrid are prioritizing the contract extension of Ferland Mendy, aiming to reach an agreement with the French defender ahead of the 2024-25 season, according to a report by MARCA. Mendy’s current contract is set to expire in the summer of 2025, but the club has decided to secure his future at the Santiago Bernabéu. This decision comes despite Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies remaining on the team’s radar.
Mendy enjoyed a resurgence last season, cementing his role as the undisputed starter on the left side of Real Madrid’s defense. His performances were marked by robust defensive displays, making him a critical asset for the team. Given his importance, Real Madrid are keen to retain his services and avoid potential transfer market uncertainties.
As the situation stands, Real Madrid are expected to keep both Mendy and Fran Garcia for the upcoming season, as acquiring Davies this summer appears increasingly unlikely. The club’s focus on securing Mendy’s extension underscores their commitment to stability and continuity within the squad as they prepare for the challenges of the upcoming season.
