" Cardiff City keen on bid for Sunderland FC target Benjamin Mendy "
5th Jul 2013
The Bluebirds are interested in the young French full-back despite Sunderland hoping to close a deal for the Le Havre defender in the coming days
Benjamin Mendy also plays for France Under 19s
Cardiff City are keen on French left-back Benjamin Mendy and could yet challenge Sunderland for the teenager.
Mendy's club, Le Havre, have accepted an offer from the Black Cats, but personal terms have not yet been agreed.
A source close to the Bluebirds has confirmed Malky Mackay would love to add French youth international Mendy, 18, to his squad for the 2013-14 Barclay's Premier League season.
Mendy has also been linked with Arsenal, Lyon and Marseille this summer, but the player has previously indicated that the Stadium of Light will be his destination
Reports this week suggested Mendy was due to travel to the UK to meet Sunderland officials, but the Bluebirds are still hopeful they may have an outside chance of landing the talented star.
Le Havre president Jean-Pierre Louvel last week told Radio Monte Carlo: "We have reached agreement with Sunderland for the transfer of Mendy.
"It's now up to him to reach an agreement with them. We are okay."

Mackay has signed Danish international centre-forward Andreas Cornelius from FC Copenhagen for £8.5m, while Blackpool have accepted Cardiff's £8m offer for Tom Ince and contract talks are likely to start over the weekend.
City also need to increase competition in their back four and Mendy is certainly on Mackay's wanted list.

Arsenal are known to be a keen admirer of that lad. Good to see once again that we're looking at high quality players.

Thats the problem with our fans. We moan like f**k, want all these players but can't handle the process in getting them.
Moaning abo ince and wanyama.
Imagine being arsenal then? Linked with higuain for ages still not done, Rooney, jovetic for yonks..loads of strikers linked none signed.
Liverpool meant to be a done deal ages ago with that Armenian mfjgjsjsjs or whatever he's called...still not done.
All been going on longer than any of our deals, don't hear ANY of them moaning.
f**k up. The players will come, issue here in my opinion and what is wrong with our fans is down to all these stupid itk posts now the fans EXPECT things YESTERDAY and won't wait..
