The Chelsea homepage officially confirmed the successful signing of Rennes goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.
Chelsea welcomes new recruit on Saturday Summer 2020
Chelsea officially successfully recruited Edouard Mendy from Rennes. The Senegalese goalkeeper joins the Blues on a five-year contract worth £ 22 million. Details of the contract have yet to be announced.
On the day of the new team’s launch, the 28-year-old goalkeeper shared:
“I am delighted to be joining Chelsea. It is a dream to be in this excellent team and to work with coach Frank Lampard.
I’m looking forward to meeting my new teammates and I can’t wait to start training and competing. “
Edouard Mendy officially joined Chelsea. |
Edouard Mendy became Chelsea’s seventh contract in the 2020 summer market. Previously, the Stamford Bridge team successfully recruited Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, Thiago Silva, Malang Sarr and Kai Havertz.
Last season Edouard Mendy played for Rennes in Ligue 1. He only conceded 31 goals in 33 starts before the tournament was canceled due to the effects of the COVID-19 epidemic.
With Edouard Mendy present, Kepa’s position at Stamford Bridge is alarming. He joined Chelsea in 2018 with a record price of £ 71.5 million, but Kepa has not lived up to expectations. Most recently, they made an unforgivable mistake in a 2-0 loss to Liverpool in the second round of the 2020/21 Premier League.
Lampard has issued a warning that Kepa needs more determination to win the number one spot in Chelsea’s wooden frame.
Frank Lampard confirmed that goalkeeper Edouard Mendy will go to Chelsea for a medical checkup and will soon complete his contract to join Stamford Bridge in the coming days.
Chelsea plan to hire goalkeeper Edouard Mendy from Rennes and compare the form between the goalkeeper and Kepa to see the difference.
