‘Tuchel requested’ – As Chelsea Interested in signing 51M Real Madrid Star
According to OK Diario, Chelsea is interested in signing Real Madrid’s Ferland Mendy as a left-back.
According to the Spanish outlet, the Blues want to improve their alternatives at wingback because Mendy is anticipated to be signed as “an express request from Thomas Tuchel” and Marcos Alonso is expected to leave Stamford Bridge.
The fullback is reportedly available this summer. Despite being a consistent starter for Carlo Ancelotti’s team last season, the player is dissatisfied with his current contract.
The 27-year-old is asking for a pay raise, but Real are unwilling to grant it. The La Liga champions believe they have ample protection in case Mendy leaves now that Antonio Rudiger has been signed because David Alaba can also play fullback.
However, After considering everything, it is believed that Real would sell the Frenchman to Chelsea if they made a bid of between €50 (£42.5m) and €60 (£51m).
