KEY POINTS

  • Real Madrid has a lot of young talent that they can further develop in years to come
  • One of Real Madrid's promising players is left-back Ferland Mendy
  • Mendy has proven that he is capable of suiting up in the starting post of Zinedine Zidane's system. 

The roster of Real Madrid’s team is considered deep with multiple players donning the historic jersey of the Los Blancos. With the abundance of talent in the club, one player that is expected to remain reliable for Zinedine Zidane’s prestigious squad is Ferland Mendy.

It has already been proven by Mendy that he can keep up with the world’s best players. The French professional football player possesses the capabilities to make his presence felt every time he steps foot on the pitch. The 24-year-old has been with Los Blancos since 2019 and has shown a steady pace of improvement.

Throughout Mendy’s stay in Real Madrid, he has already made the impact of being one of the best left-backs in football. Per The Real Champs, the way he plays on the field has him mentioned next to names such as Alphonso Davies and Andrew Robertson. This puts Mendy in good company and should be enough reason to consider him as one of the players to look out for.

It’s also crucial to note that there are other several quality players on Real Madrid’s lineup that Mendy has to compete against for minutes. These include Sergio Reguilion and Marcelo as the other capable defenders of the team.

But with a full year of experience under Zidane’s system, Mendy is in position to be the favored left-back in the club’s starting lineup. The way he plays the sport with intelligence is one aspect that makes him special for the team. In addition to this, his glaring speed and athleticism are recognized as an asset for Real Madrid.

The next few months will be crucial for sports as the world is slowly recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic. It will only be a matter of time before the games bounce back in this ever-evolving time.

With this, it will be interesting to see how Real Madrid will move forward regarding their roster. The potential of Mendy is through the roof and he’s shown how much he has developed in last year’s stint with Zidane. It will only be a matter of time before everyone sees how Los Blancos fully maximizes the talent on their club.
