The tile for Ferland Mendy. Starting this Sunday evening during Real Madrid’s match against Espanyol Barcelona, the French left-back had to leave his partners in the 14th minute of play. This is his fifth injury this season, having returned barely a month ago.
Holding his right hip after a sprint towards his goal, Mendy displayed a look that hardly inspired optimism. Real Madrid are facing an incessant wave of injuries, which now total 57 since Dani Carvajal was also injured in recent days.
