OFFICIAL: Ferland Mendy has surgery, will be out around five months
Real Madrid have published a medical report on Ferland Mendy, who had surgery to repair his hamstring injury and will be out around five months. Our player Ferland Mendy has successfully undergone surgery today for a rectus femoris injury in his right leg, under the supervision of the Real Madrid Medical Services. Mendy will begin his recovery process in the coming days.
Source: Realmadrid. com It was initially reported that Mendy could miss an entire year and therefore consider retirement, but it looks like the French defender will be available during the first third of the upcoming season. However, Real Madrid should not rely on him to provide consistent minutes, given that he hasn’t stayed healthy for a while.
That means that Los Blancos could need another option at the left-back spot if Fran García ends up leaving the club.
