Spanish press reports today revealed that Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti is committed to keeping the Real Madrid star in the current period and not leaving him at the end of the season.
Ancelotti surprised all the officials in the Royal Club when he asked to renew the contract of this player, who was one step away from leaving next summer.
According to what was reported by the Spanish “Relivo” network, Carlo Ancelotti intends to renew the contract of Real Madrid star Ferland Mendy, even if Real Madrid signs Canadian left-back Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich.
The report stated that Ancelotti did not hesitate to agree to Ferland Mendy’s stay after he was asked about his desire to keep the French full-back or replace him at the end of the season.
It was mentioned in previous reports that Real Madrid’s management is considering selling left-back Mendy next season due to the recurring injuries he suffers from.
According to the Spanish newspaper AS, there is currently a discussion about Mendy’s future between the board of directors and the technical staff.
The club management believes that selling the player would be the best option, as Bayern Munich’s young full-back Alphonso Davies could join the team in the summer of 2024.
On the other hand, the technical staff wants the player to continue due to his excellent defensive performance, and the club management will make a decision on this issue upon the arrival of Canadian star Davis.
