FC Lorient captain Laurent Abérgel spoke about the presence of Benjamin Mendy in his team, which he considers very positive.
While Benjamin Mendy could play his first match in the jersey of the FC Lorient this Sunday at Moustoir. As since the announcement of his arrival at the Breton club after the multiple accusations of sexual assault to which he was the subject, the French international is not unanimous, as evidenced by the numerous posters in the city of Lorient before the match.
” A chance “ to see her
In the Merlus locker room, the former Monegasque benefits from more credit and support. It’s the captain Laurent Abérgel himself who spoke about it this Friday at a press conference. For him, it is a chance to have Mendy within the Lorient squad. “It’s a strength what he managed to do, to come back so quickly and sharp as he is at the moment. (…) He’s a great guy so I’m happy to have him with us. Having him with us is also an opportunity, we have to know how to take advantage of it. We know that there’s a lot of talk about it but we try to ignore it and put it in the best possible conditions. He’s a boy who has a lot of experience, a great track record. He knows how to approach this. It’s a strength in him, he has an incredible character”he said about his teammate.
