According to Spanish outlet Relevo, Real Madrid’s stance on Ferland Mendy and Alphonso Davies reveals that manager Carlo Ancelotti is more eager to see Mendy extend his contract with the club rather than pursuing Davies.
After securing a successful season as La Liga and Champions League winners in the 2023-24 campaign, Real Madrid welcomed Kylian Mbappé, while Toni Kroos announced his retirement. Luka Modrić and Lucas Vázquez are also set for contract renewals. However, there is still a concern for Ancelotti.
Mendy’s deal with the Spanish giants expires in the summer of 2026. Ancelotti prefers Mendy’s swift renewal over engaging in transfer negotiations for Davies. The Italian coach has publicly praised Mendy, stating he is “the best left-back in the world.” In the just-concluded season, Mendy had his best campaign, playing a crucial role in Madrid’s double triumph.
Madrid is pursuing Bayern Munich’s Davies, whose contract runs until June 30, 2025. If Davies were to leave, Bayern expects a significant transfer fee, while Madrid hopes to sign him on a free transfer. Davies has turned down Bayern’s renewal talks, expressing a desire to continue his career at the Santiago Bernabéu.
