the Spanish press puts pressure on two French Merengues!

Diverse fortunes for the French from Real Madrid. Recently, Eduardo Camavinga has taken the lead with the Merengue, establishing himself as a starter in the midfield alongside Kroos and Modric during major recent meetings against Liverpool and Barça. The former Rennais has even confirmed his rise to power in the France team and the Spanish press does not fail to underline his good dispositions at the moment, which contrast with the difficulties encountered by his compatriots in the White House. This Thursday, the daily sports looks at the cases of Ferland Mendy and Aurélien Tchouaméni, two players who have lost “their essential status” in the eyes of their coach Carlo Ancelotti. For the midfielder, expected as the successor to Casemiro who left this summer, an “irregularity” is pointed out while a left calf injury did not help his affairs, keeping him away from the field for a few weeks in January.

The pressure on Mendy

Like Tchouaméni, Madrid supporters and observers are waiting at the turn of Ferland Mendy, back from a long physical glitch dragged on since the end of January. Since then, the left-back has missed 12 Merengue games, during which Nacho has “shown that he is a useful player”. Highly criticized for his jagged performances before his time in the infirmary, the former Lyonnais must regain his place and at the same time the confidence of Ancelotti. With Real Madrid still considering extending his contract, Mendy has no time to waste. Committed on three tables, the Merengue hope to count on the return to form of all their French, in the wake of a Camavinga in full progress.
