Real Madrid s hopes of clinching the La Liga title have been hit by another injury after the club confirmed on Tuesday that France defender Ferland Mendy has a problem in his tibia. After the tests carried out today on our player Ferland Mendy by the Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with tibial periostitis, Madrid said in a statement.
According to reports in the Spanish press, Mendy is expected to miss the rest of the season, leaving Madrid without their first-choice left-back for the run-in.
Yesterday, after the game [against Chelsea], I was training on the pitch and I noticed a puncture in my left calf. Today I have been tested and it has been confirmed that I have a muscle injury. If there is something that hurts me, it is not being able to help the team in these highly demanding matches in which we play and also not being able to return the love and energy that you transmit to me on the pitch. I can t do anything but speak frankly, work hard and cheer on the team with my soul.
