Real Madrid are preparing to face Deportivo Alaves in the seventh round of the Spanish League, and the Madrid team seeks to continue chasing its rival Barcelona at the top of the standings.
Real Madrid occupies second place in the league standings with 14 points, and is separated from the leader Barcelona by 4 full points.
Carlo Ancelotti announced in a press conference the renewal of Ferland Mendy’s contract, confirming that the French defender will remain with the white team.
Despite the spread of rumors about this matter in Valdebebas, the institution has not issued any official statement in this regard, and the question now remains about the player’s commitment to the club in the long term.
Real Madrid can continue to rely on Mendy, who has proven his worth in the team after overcoming his injuries and his good performance since last season.
There was some concern in Real Madrid about the continuity of the player’s performance, but he has now passed that stage and is preparing to defend the white shirt.
On the other hand, reliable sources at the club indicate their desire to bring Mendy and Alphonso Davies together and the signing of the Canadian defender is a legitimate goal, although he is still at Bayern Munich, and the matter is not yet decided.
It remains to be seen what the negotiations will yield, as Davies is expected to come as a free agent, just as happened with David Alaba, Antonio Rudiger and Kylian Mbappé.
