🏥Rehab begins: Mendy has undergone successful surgery | OneFootball

Real Madrid issued a new official statement this Monday, May 11, to provide an update on Ferland Mendy’s health. After the seriousness of his right leg injury was confirmed, the French full-back finally underwent surgery to definitively resolve his physical issues.

A successful operation

According to the medical report released by the club, Mendy successfully underwent surgery today for his right rectus femoris injury. The operation was carried out under the close supervision of Real Madrid’s Medical Services, in line with the plans set by the specialists after conservative treatment was ruled out due to the complexity of the tear.

Start of rehabilitation

The club reported that the player will begin recovery and physiotherapy work in the coming days. Although the statement does not specify a timeline, this surgery confirms that the defender will be out of action for a lengthy period, which could stretch to twelve months. This news brings partial relief by clearing up any doubts about his need for surgery, although it leaves the team without one of its defensive pillars for next season.
