The former Manchester City player is joining Ligue 1 side Lorient in France following his release from Manchester City.
The 29-year-old had been a free agent since June 30 after his contract with Man City expired. He has now opted to return to France to continue his career after spending six years in England.
The Frenchman joined Pep Guardiola’s side in 2017 from Monaco for £ 52 million and went on to make 75 appearances for City. He hadn’t featured for the Premier League champions since August 2021 and is now embarking on a new chapter in Ligue 1.
Lorient confirmed that Mendy has signed a two-year contract with the club after passing a medical examination with a club statement announcing his arrival.
