Real Madrid agree to sell star player to Chelsea but at the right price

According to a report on Teamtalk, Real Madrid are willing to sell left-back Ferland Mendy to Chelsea for the right price.

Mendy, 28, reportedly wishes to remain in Madrid beyond next summer, though the lure of regular game-time at Chelsea would appeal.

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly not impressed with his left-back options Marc Cucurella and Ian Maatsen and is keen on offloading both players to sign Mendy from Real Madrid.

Real Madrid are plotting a move for Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies in 2024 and are reportedly open to selling Mendy to fund the move.

The article did not offer a clue as to how much Real Madrid would command for the Frenchman. However, given he’ll be entering the final year of his Real contract next summer, it stands to reason it won’t be top dollar, especially as Mendy turns 29 next June.
