Ferland Mendy (French pronunciation: ; born 8 June 1995) is a French professional footballer who plays as a left back for Real Madrid and the French national team.
Born in Meulan-en-Yvelines, France, Mendy is of Senegalese descent. At the age of 15 he spent time in a wheelchair and was told he might never play football again.
During the 2016–17 Ligue 2 season, Mendy made 35 appearances for Le Havre.
Mendy signed for Ligue 1 club Lyon on 29 June 2017 on a five-year contract. The transfer fee paid to Le Havre was reported as €5 million plus a possible €1 million in bonuses.
On 12 June 2019, Mendy signed for La Liga club Real Madrid on a six-year contract for an initial fee of €48 million, potentially rising to €53 million with add-ons.
In November 2018, Mendy was called up into the French senior team for the first time after the injury-enforced withdrawal of Benjamin Mendy for the matches against Netherlands and Uruguay. He made his debut against the latter playing all 90 minutes of a 1–0 home win.
