Edouard Mendy is not even two years into his Chelsea career and has already achieved a substantial amount during his time at Stamford Bridge. A Champions League win, an AFCON title, a UEFA Super Cup and a Club World Cup, in addition to reaching a number of finals under Thomas Tuchel. It's not been a bad start to life in west London.
The 30-year-old goalkeeper has firmly established himself as Chelsea's number one figure between the posts since joining the Blues on a five-year deal in September 2020. Amid the ongoing uncertainty of Kepa Arrizabalaga's future, there is little doubt Mendy will retain his position as Chelsea's first-choice stopper as the club look to find success in a new era of ownership with a squad rebuild required.
football.london understands a new contract is planned for the Senegal international, who is currently one of the lowest-earning members of Tuchel's first-team squad. For his part, Mendy hopes that his second 18 months with the Blues can come close to matching the start of his Chelsea career.
