Fabrizio Romano said that Real Madrid has made a clear choice about Ferland Mendy’s future. The French left back has been given a new deal that keeps him at the Santiago Bernabeu until June 2027. Because of this, Alphonso Davies will have to wait a little longer to join Real Madrid.

Marca reports that Real Madrid has agreed to keep Mendy on after his current deal ends in 2025. The new contract keeps him with the company until 2027 and gives them the choice to keep him for one more season. Mendy got this offer to renew a few weeks ago, and the deal should be official soon after he gets back from holiday. He has been taking a break since he played for France in Euro 2024.

This choice shows that Real Madrid has faith in Mendy, who has had a tough but ultimately successful time at the club. In his earlier seasons, he was hurt a lot, but in 2023–24, he made a big comeback, getting fit and back in shape. Mendy’s comeback has earned him a starting left back spot again under manager Carlo Ancelotti, who has been a big supporter of keeping him at the club.

What will Real Madrid do next?

Real Madrid made a smart move by extending Mendy’s deal. He will be a stable left back for many years to come. His play this season (2023–24) has been very important, and Ancelotti can’t do without him on the team. This new deal not only keeps him on the team, but it also shows that Real Madrid believes in his skills and promise.

Real Madrid has big plans, and Mendy’s new contract will help them get there. The team has been interested in Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies. Davies would be a great addition to any team because of how fast he is and how good he is at striking. But talks between Davies and Bayern Munich have come to a standstill. Even though Bayern offered Davies a big pay raise, it is not enough to meet his needs of €20 million (£17 million/$22 million) a year. Because of this, Davies’ future is unclear, and Real Madrid is keeping a close eye on things.

Ferland Mendy’s time at Real Madrid has been up and down. He came to the club from Lyon in 2019 and made an immediate impact. However, a string of accidents slowed him down. Despite these setbacks, Mendy’s dedication and hard work have paid off, earning him this new contract and solidifying his place in one of the most competitive squads in football.
