Benjamin Mendy has released a statement after Manchester City were ordered to pay the defender the majority of the £11million claim he made against them at an employment tribunal.
“Today the employment tribunal upheld the main part of my claim against Manchester City Football Club for unpaid wages, finding that the club had unlawfully made deductions from my wages for a total period of 16 months and 23 days,” Mendy wrote on Wednesday.
“Having had to wait for 3 years for my wages, I am delighted with the decision and sincerely hope that the club will now do the honourable thing and pay the outstanding amounts, as well as the other amounts promised to me under the contract, without further delay, so I can finally put this difficult part of my life behind me.”
