Chelsea's mass summer exodus continued on Wednesday as they confirmed the departure of Edouard Mendy.
The Senegal goalkeeper has joined Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli on a permanent transfer - three years since moving to Stamford Bridge from Rennes. He won the Champions League in his first season at Chelsea, before keeping 23 clean sheets in his second year as the Blues reached the FA Cup and Carabao Cup final.
However, Mendy struggled during the 2022/23 campaign and dropped down to second-choice behind Kepa Arrizabalaga, who impressed when he was handed the chance. And boss Mauricio Pochettino, who was appointed as the club's new manager last month, has chosen to stick with Arrizabalaga.
