Florentino Pérez has suspicions of a Real Madrid starter: he negotiates with the enemy
The World Cup in Qatar is already part of the past and all the clubs are returning to their usual routines to face the final stretch of the season.
That is why Real Madrid is already focusing on what their short-term goals should be, such as the titles to be achieved in this football season, but it also goes further. And Florentino Pérez has suspicions that one of the starters is negotiating with the enemy.
The white president does not trust all his players. They are superstars and there are always clubs interested in signing them. And one of the protagonists in this aspect is Ferland Mendy , who could be negotiating with PSG and Manchester City , two of the great rivals of the white club.
Florentino Pérez is worried that Mendy is negotiating with PSG or City. The president of the white club fears that the French defender could leave Real Madrid in the near future and would like to retain the French player.
Mendy, who has become one of the most solid defenders in the Champions League but has disappointed in La Liga of late , has been the subject of transfer rumors for some time and interest in taking him has increased recently.
Although the details of the negotiations have not been made public, Florentino Perez is determined to do everything possible to ensure that Mendy remains a Real Madrid player.
Right now he has no rival on the left side of the white defense and Mendy is the undisputed starter under Carlo Ancelotti.
Mendy no longer thinks about Real Madrid
However, Mendy is not ruling anything out and could change his mind in the near future. It is not expected that there will be any movements this January, but there could be a surprise next summer. Right now Mendy doesn’t have Real Madrid on his mind and it shows on the pitch, as his contribution goes down every time he is linked with another big European club.
And it is that lately he is not at his best at the football level. Mendy was pictured in the first goal of the defeat against Villarreal , making it clear that he was not having the day and that the ball exit is causing him many problems. And a sign of this was that he ended up being replaced by Ancelotti in the second half.
As reported by the Madrid press, Mendy ended up apologizing to the rest of his teammates , who accepted the apology from the start. But it was proven that if there were any footballer who could compete with him, Mendy could stop being untouchable.
