Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy has criticised media outlets for mistakenly using his image in stories about Manchester City's Benjamin Mendy.

City and France full-back Benjamin Mendy has been charged with six counts of rape and one of sexual assault, and remains in custody.

 

Photos of Edouard Mendy and his cousin, Real Madrid's Ferland Mendy, have been used to illustrate articles.

 

Stories doing the rounds about Ferland Mendy now. Probably wise not to repeat them here, but Football For All on Twitter has the gen. Suffice it say that if they are true, Benjamin Mendy has as much reason to be upset about being confused with Ferland as vice versa.

Yea, saw that.

 

That is some serious shit for the guy to just float out there. You know the ins and outs of libel well enough.

Fuck. Ing. Hell. 
 

That’s proper apartheid style shit. 

Yep. A lone complaint is maybe 'sour grapes' but a 7 man complaint team is an all out inferno of allegations. Unfortunately,while the majority of people involved in running clubs,the sport and everything but the players on the pitch,this will continue to be a problem. This seems a major incident though.

Games gone mad if you can't even racially segregate your changing room nowadays.

I can't get my head around the sort of mind that 

a). comes up with the idea of segregating the changies; and

b). thinks it's a good idea.
