Since signing for Chelsea in September 2020, Edouard Mendy has gone from being a relative unknown to the glamorous footballing world to being one of the best goalkeepers on the planet.
His arrival at Stamford Bridge from Rennes for just £21m two years ago looked like a bargain at the time and has proven to be nothing short of a steal ever since. In those two seasons he has played, Mendy has won the Champions League, Club World Cup, Super Cup, plus the Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal, as well as some massive individual awards as well.
His confidence on the pitch has evolved so he has a great relationship with his defence, but that is being shaken up this season. Chelsea have lost two of their main centre-backs from the last 18 months and will be bringing in new blood for Mendy to marshal across the pitch.
