However, football pundit, Gary Neville has reacted to the report as he stated that Mendy is not among the two top goalkeepers in the Premier League.

According to Neville, Liverpool goalkeeper, Alisson Becker and Man City Elderson are the best goalkeepers in the Premier League.

“For me, Mendy, because I think Chelsea, with the goalkeeper they had [Kepa], had massive issues and they would not be where they are at,” Neville told Sky Sports

Neville however added in fairness since Mendy came in, the Blues fortunes, defensively, have changed.

According to him Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel has made his squad brilliant defensively.
