The Baffling Tale of Mendy’s Swiss Miss…
Holy guacamole and flying spaghetti defenders! Benjamin “The Wandering Wingback” Mendy is once again on his trusty steed, riding into the sunset of football’s vast unknown planet called The Transfer Market. His Swiss vacation with FC Zurich has ended faster than a squirrel at a greased-up obstacle course after the club’s president, Ancillo Canepa, proclaimed he played like a turtle in a marathon. Talk about a kicker to the shins!
Signed with Zurich in a twisty February move, Mendy’s contract was meant to go until 2026 — long enough to knit several scarves! Alas, the webbed gloves of fate had other plans. After some less-than-mighty performances, and some unlucky tumbles with Lady Luck herself, Mendy’s suitcase is again packed tighter than a referee’s notepad! With 8 appearances to his name, his wizardry on the Swiss pitch didn’t add up to a magical show, leading to a mutual ‘au revoir!’ on getting a sports future that’s more star-studded.
Previously a blue-capped misfit at Man City, Mendy had donned the crest of Lorient yet shone as brightly as a flashlight in the midday sun — a mere 15 outings before calling it quits. Now, with a saga that charges on like an energizer bunny with a bad sense of direction, Mendy is scouting new goalposts and awaiting a fresh dawn to dribble into! Will this time turn his career arc into the dramatic rags-to-riches story or just another episode of “Steel-Toed Tales: The Mendy Chronicles”? Stay tuned, footy fans!
