At only 22 years old, Antoine Mendy is definitely no longer a novice at the highest level. The Senegalese international has reached a significant milestone, as evidenced by his start in the final of the last African Cup of Nations against Morocco. Trained at Burel FC before perfecting his skills on the Côte d’Azur, the athletic defender has solid experience since he has already played nearly a hundred professional matches under the Gym colors. His great versatility, which allows him to evolve with the same ease in the axis of defense or on the right flank, makes him a particularly sought-after and valued profile.
Obviously, this great progression does not go unnoticed abroad and its popularity is skyrocketing. According to our information, Serie A is closely interested in his case: Fiorentina and Udinese have already made inquiries to explore the feasibility of the operation. But the most pressing interest could well come from across the Channel, where Crystal Palace is following the matter with particular attention.
Crystal Palace appreciates Mendy’s profile and room for improvement
The Eagles, always very fond of talents from the French championship, greatly appreciate the athletic profile of the Senegalese international. London management is convinced by his strong margin for improvement and believes that he has all the physical characteristics to shine in the demanding Premier League. With significant financial power, the English club coached by Pierre Sage has ample means to go on the offensive.
An agitation which is the business of OGC Nice. Forced to find several tens of millions of euros this summer to replenish its coffers, the Riviera management is completely open to the idea of its player leaving. Nice decision-makers have set their conditions and are ready to begin discussions based on an offer of 15 million euros. The auction kicks off!
