Club career

Mendy was born in Mont-Saint-Aignan, France. He started his career in the training centre of Auxerre, moving first to Quevilly, before signing a one-season professional trainee contract with Rennes in June 2006. A year later, having not imposed himself, he left Rennes for Paris FC. [1]

After one season at Paris FC, Mendy moved to Germany, first with Hansa Rostock, where he played for the B team, and then with SC Freiburg. [2] He left the club in July 2010, having a trial at English Championship team Middlesbrough before signing a two-year deal with French side Grenoble Foot 38. [3] He stayed just one season, due to Grenoble filing for bankruptcy at the end of the 2010–11 Ligue 2 campaign. On 31 July 2011, he signed a one-year contract with Ligue 1 side AC Ajaccio. [4]

Mendy made his Ligue 1 debut on 17 September 2011, as a second half substitute in the match at Nice. [1] After making just three Ligue 1 appearances, he moved to Superleague Greece side Levadiakos in January 2012, signing a two-year deal. [5] He was released from his contract at the end of the 2012–13 season, and joined Bulgarian side CSKA Sofia. [6] He spent a second season in Bulgaria with Litex Lovech in 2014–15 before a six-month spell in Cyprus with Omonia. [1]

In January 2016 Mendy returned to Levadiakos for a second spell, spending two-and-a-half seasons with the club. [7] In July 2018 he signed a two-year deal with Swiss side FC Schaffhausen. [8] Having been used most often as a substitute in the second half of the 2018–19 season, he signed for US Boulogne. [9]
