Important for Manchester United Fans
In the period of last two months, Real Madrid don’t even have more than one fully fit full-back and now they have 5 fully fit full-backs. On the right sides both Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dani Carvajal know there roles but the left side is stacked with there star’s. Now, the question is who is going to be the first priority of Head Coach Xabi Alonso as a STARTER in the first team.
Addionally, Ferland Mendy has only player around 11 minutes since March last season. For his backup Real Madrid had Fran Garcia now the club has brought in Álvaro Carreras from Benfica for (58 million).
Now the thing is 3 Left backs are to much for Real Madrid. So, the Spainsh giants are ready to Cash in on Frans Garcia or Ferland Mendy.
According to Marca, Ferland Mendy is not willing to to leave Real Madrid easily. He wants to fight for his spot at the Club. The France international is looking confident with his thought’s that he will get his spot back when, He’s fully recovered from his recent surgery to repair a ruptured tendon in his right quadriceps muscle.
It appears that Mendy’s desires run counter to those of the club. According to recent reports, Real Madrid wants to trade the defender because they believe Mendy is “reasonably redundant” now that Carreras has joined the team.
The rumored choice overlaps with Alonso’s reconstruction. As the club enters a new age, Los Blancos are committed to promoting and advancing youthful talent.
Mendy’s injury history has made him an unreliable member of Real Madrid’s squad, despite the fact that he helped the team win two Champions League crowns and eleven additional trophies. The 30-year-old player made only 31 appearances out of the 68 games that Los Blancos played last season because he was sidelined for months due to various injuries.
As a result of the fact that the France international is not an attack-oriented fullback, it is highly unlikely that he would be successful in the role of wingback in the event that Alonso decides to use his favored back three in the 2025–26 season.
