Benjamin Mendy’s five-month trial lifted the lid on his private life off the pitch, offering unique “through the keyhole” access to his home and inner circle.
The jury heard the defender’s chat-up lines: “I said to her, ‘Show me your bum.’ She showed me her bum and I said: ‘Do you want to have sex?’” They discovered he never used contraception, despite regularly sleeping with multiple women in the course of a night. They heard that Mendy and his friends sometimes had sex with the same women, albeit separately, on some nights.
