Looking sharp in training Mendy (undisclosed) trained with the team Friday and looked sharp, putting himself in the mix as a potential option for Saturday's clash against Real Sociedad, the club posted.

Impact Mendy has battled through recurring injury setbacks over the past few seasons, but he finally looks on the verge of a comeback after trending in the right direction for weeks. The Frenchman showed real sharpness in Friday's training session and could be in the squad for Saturday's showdown against Real Sociedad. That said, his return should not shake up the starting XI, as Alvaro Carreras appears firmly locked in as the Merengues' first-choice option at left-back.

Sill out Mendy (undisclosed) is not yet an option for the club.

Impact Mendy is out a sixth straight game Sunday as he recovers from an undisclosed injury, still not an option despite an expected return. He still has only made two appearances all season due to an injury, a rough campaign for the defender.

Could be available against Valencia Mendy (undisclosed) could be an option for Sunday's clash against Valencia after training in full this week, according to Madrid Xtra.

Impact Mendy returned to partial training earlier in the week and stepped back into full team session Saturday, putting him on the radar for Sunday's matchup against Valencia. That said, given his ongoing injury history over the past few seasons, he's likely to be brought along cautiously, especially with Alvaro Carreras holding his own in that role recently.

Spotted in team training Mendy (undisclosed) was spotted in team training on Saturday, according to Madrid Xtra.

Impact Mendy has been struggling with injuries for several seasons now but looks ready to make an additional return to the match squad, as he was spotted training with the team on Saturday. That said, given his numerous setbacks, the staff might want to ease him back into the mix to avoid any new ones, as his role will still have to be determined under new coach Alvaro Arbeloa.

Ruled out again Mendy (undisclosed) is ruled out again due to injury, according to the club.

Impact Mendy can't remain fit since the middle from last season with Real Madrid and will be sidelined again for some time to recover. It is yet unknown if this is a new issue or a setback from his previous problems. Newcomer Alvaro Carreras is expected to remain the start at left-back until Mendy finds full fitness hopefully one day.

Impact Mendy is back with the team after some injury issues, hoping to now remain fit after only one appearance all season thus far due to constant injury problems.

Spotted in team training Mendy (thigh) was spotted in team training on Thursday, the club posted.

Impact Mendy appears to be fully recovered from his thigh injury, as he was spotted on the training pitch alongside Aurelien Tchouameni on Thursday, suggesting he could be nearing a return to the match squad. This is great news for Real Madrid, as they are dealing with numerous injuries and suspensions in the backline, and having Mendy back as an option could help coach Xabi Alonso manage his players' minutes.

Picks up thigh injury Mendy is out for the time being due to a thigh injury, according to his club.

Impact Mendy is hitting the sidelines once again, just one match after getting his first minutes of the season, as the French defender is dealing with a muscle injury in his thigh. This is a brutal run for the defender who missed time to begin the season due to a quadriceps injury. He will likely miss at least a few weeks of action, although this will not help him build up minutes in the team at all, only appearing once in his eight appearances on the team sheet.

Impact Mendy is on the bench for Wednesday's clash after overcoming a quad injury. He returned to full team training earlier in the week so it's not a surprise to see him back with the squad. When fit Mendy will push Alvaro Carreras for the starting place at left-back.

Makes squad list Mendy (quadriceps) is in the squad list for Wednesday's clash against Juventus in the Champions League, the club posted.

Impact Mendy makes the squad list for the first time since March after recovering from a long-term quadriceps injury. The left back trained normally with the team this week and has fully recovered.

Trains with team Mendy (quadriceps) is back in team training and could be an option moving forward, according to Pablo Polo of Marca.

Impact Mendy has been out over six months now due to injury but is nearing his return to play finally, as the defender joined his teammates for training this week. This is huge news for the club, as he was a starting left-back at times last season, adding some depth back to the squad. He will now have to comepete with Fran Garcia and Alvaro Carreras for time on the left, more likely to be a rotational option to begin.

Still out for time being Mendy (quadriceps) remains out for the time being as he continues his rehabilitation process, the club announced.

Impact Mendy remains out for the time being due to a quadriceps injury as he is still working on his rehabilitation. That said, his timeline for return remains uncertain, but his absence does not affect the starting squad since Alvaro Carreras is having a good start to the season as a newcomer and will likely be difficult to move to the bench.

Won't face Osasuna Mendy (quadriceps) is still in his rehabilitation process and is not an option for Tuesday's match against Osasuna, according to his club.

Impact Mendy will not make the call for the season opener, as the defender has not recovered from his injury, and he is still working on a return in training. That said, the club will be without their left-back, likely giving new addition Alvaro Carreras the start on the left flank of the defense. He will probably see a return soon, with him working on his return already, hopefully not missing too much time to begin the campaign.
