Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has officially confirmed that defender Ferland Mendy has signed a new contract with the club, extending his stay until 2027. This announcement puts an end to media reports that had been suggesting a potential departure for the French full-back.
Mendy joined Real Madrid in 2019, signing a deal worth €48 million after a successful stint with Olympique Lyonnais. His initial contract was set to expire in June 2025. Since arriving at the Santiago Bernabéu, Mendy has become a key component of Real Madrid’s defense, making a total of 176 appearances across all competitions. He has contributed significantly with six goals and 10 assists, helping the club secure two Champions League titles and three La Liga championships.
Beyond his club success, Mendy has also been a key figure in the French national team, playing a crucial role in their victory at the 2021 UEFA Nations League. His new contract with Real Madrid reinforces his commitment to the club and ensures his continued presence in the heart of their defense for the foreseeable future.
