“He’s just a waste of money Madrid will never enjoy him”- Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez says £60M Madrid player was a really poor signing and could make Madrid end this season without champions league if care is not taken

In a recent news conference, Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez was open about Real Madrid’s £60 million purchase of left-back Ferland Mendy. Hernandez called Mendy a “waste of money” and said Madrid would regret its large investment.
“Mendy was an extremely awful signing,” Hernandez said. “He’s a complete waste of money that Madrid will never enjoy. If he is not careful, he might be the reason Madrid fails to win the Champions League this season.”
Mendy’s performances have come under scrutiny this season, with some analysts doubting his consistency and effect on the pitch. Despite great hopes, Mendy has battled to establish himself in the starting lineup and has not lived up to the transfer fee.
Hernandez’s remarks exacerbate the tense rivalry between Barcelona and Real Madrid, two of football’s most illustrious clubs. His frank appraisal of Mendy’s ability is sure to stir Real Madrid fans, while also highlighting the immense pressure players experience when joining such prominent teams.
Real Madrid, which is now competing for domestic and European glory, will definitely be hoping that Mendy can establish his value and silence his detractors throughout the balance of the season. However, with Xavi Hernandez’s harsh evaluation still in their minds, the pressure on Mendy to produce has only increased.
