Real Madrid star facing a YEAR on sidelines as horror injury diagnosis revealed
Mendy's Devastating Injury Diagnosis
Ferland Mendy is facing an uncertain future at the highest level after receiving a devastating injury diagnosis following Real Madrid's recent victory over Espanyol. The France international, who has been a vital part of Los Blancos' defensive unit when fit, could reportedly now be facing a full calendar year away from the pitch.
Initial Assessments and Replacement
Real Madrid have been rocked by the news that Mendy's latest injury setback is far more severe than the club's medical staff first anticipated. The 30-year-old was forced off just 10 minutes into Sunday's 2-0 win over Espanyol and was immediately replaced by Fran Garcia, with initial assessments suggesting a standard hamstring tear that would require a few months of recovery.
