Benfica is reportedly maintaining interest in Nobel Mendy, the 21-year-old Senegalese defender currently on loan at Rayo Vallecano from Real Betis. His performances this season have drawn attention, particularly after scoring two goals in La Liga and showcasing strong defensive skills.
Mendy’s loan with Rayo Vallecano is set to conclude this summer; however, he is contracted with Real Betis until 2027. Despite Benfica’s interest, no formal approach to secure his services has been made as of yet.
