A quartet of top European clubs have been linked with Real Madrid defender, Ferland Mendy.

Mendy has previously been linked with a move to the Premier League, with Fichajes claiming both Manchester United and Chelsea are interested in the French defender.

Now, Spanish outfit Defensa Central claim PSG and Juventus have entered the race to sign Mendy.

It is added that Real Madrid would be open to selling the defender this summer, with Antonio Rudiger slotting in at centre-back, moving David Alaba to left-back.

The 27-year-old is currently under contract at the Bernabeu until 2025. He joined Real in 2019 from Lyon and has since made 105 appearances for the club, scoring five and assisting nine in the process.

Should Mendy sign for United, he would be the second Madrid defender to join United in the space of a year after Raphael Varane swapped the Spanish capital for Manchester last summer.

However, though the Red Devils have been named as an option, it does seem somewhat unlikely he would make the switch to Old Trafford this summer as United have already signed a left-back.

The Red Devils announced Tyrell Malacia as their first signing of the 2022 summer transfer window earlier this week:


Malacia has signed a four-year deal until 2026 and is believed to have set United back €15m plus €2m in add-ons.
