Papy Mendy

CSKA Moscow could be looking to sign Papy before their transfer window shuts on 22nd Feb

 

SOURCE: TRANSFERMARKT.RU

CSKA Moscow continues to actively work on signing a defensive midfielder with experience playing at the European level.

As it became known to Transfermarkt.ru, the midfielder of the national team of Senegal and Leicester City Nampali Mendy, whom the Red-Blues breeders followed at the African Cup of Nations, got into the field of view of the scouts of the “army men”. As part of the Lions, he became the winner of the recently concluded African Cup, taking part in five of the seven matches of the draw.

The player himself does not play a key role in the club of the English Premier League and is ready to change the situation to get playing practice. With the transfer window closed in most European leagues, this could be one of the last chances for cousin Bafetimbi and Luic Gomis to play in one of the top 10 European leagues before the end of the current season.

Sell....he's not EPL standard and get some decent money for him

[Tuna]

He needs to play regularly at this stage of his career and it's clear he doesn't feature in Rodgers first team plans.

Cometh the hour cometh the Mendy!!!

so you think we’ll get decent money for a player who isn’t prem standard?

[Tielemans63]

Ironically, we might well need him now if Wilf is our second most reliable centre half

[Nalis]

Love the guy but half tempted to cash in while his stock is high, particularly if countless Leicester managers arent interested in him.

Liverpool sold Jordan Ive for £15 million! It can be done

Also it not the first time a decent performance in an international competition has helped us get a decent fee for an unwanted player.

 

2018 WC helped us off load Musa. 

[Vindaloo FOX]

His stock is high at the moment.

 

Sell him now.

[Dames]

Yeah as if he’s going to sign for a club in a country that is on the brink of war… 

 

He’ll be here till the summer and leave on a free.

[LCCFox96]

Agree with the comments about Mendy's stock being high right now so this seeming a sensible time to sell. Mendy is a player who could do a job for us no doubt but if we have a Russian club offering decent money then a deal could make sense for us. If we could get £6-8mil for him, then I'd be happy to push on with Ndidi and Hamza and bank the fee for the upcoming summer refresh. If he stays, he stays and I'm sure he'll get some minutes.

[RobHawk]

Doesn't his contract expire in the summer? If we get anything for him it wouldn't be much regardless how high his stock is. 

 

I'd still let him go though, not going to do anything here this season so get what we can and use the young guys if we need to

No, 2023 I believe.

I doubt the war will affect the lives of people in Russia, especially not footballers. 

[Clever Fox]

He is a good player but Brendan doesn't rate him so better to let him go and get what we can.

 

One Headache sorted before the Summer.

I don't think that's fair.

Last season when Wilf was out early on, him and Youri worked quite well together and he rightly got a lot of plaudits from our fanbase.

 

He's never going to be the CM at the heart of a team and with how we play I don't think he really fits anywhere very well, but from what I remember he does a lot of a simple things right and could certainly do a job for a lower half PL team that perhaps plays a flatter 3/5 in Midfield.

 

Hopefully we can find a deal that works for him and brings in some funds for us.

Looks like CSKA are signing Gbamin from Everton, doubt they will sign both

We got £15m for Ahmed Musa. So probably yes.

Do they have an obligation to buy? Seen he’s gone on loan.

Such a bad Walshy transfer, £25M and he’s hardly been able to play.

Nahh not even an option to buy either, Everton covering a decent amount of his wages as well apparently

Had a similar start to his time at Everton as Mendy had with us, played a couple of games then had a bad injury and it basically ruined their first season

 

Where as Mendy was able to kind of turn around it, and has played a bit for Nice and us, Gbamin just keeps getting injured

 

Would've thought Mendy would be the more attractive option for CSKA

 

Looks like Mendy will be with us until the summer at least now as doubt they would sign both

Maybe they’re taking the gamble on Gbamin, seems like he was very well thought of before heading to Everton. Probably a higher ceiling than Mendy.

We might struggle to sell to a Russian Club, if sanctions are introduced.
