AS Monaco defender Benjamin Mendy has been forced to deny reports that he is on the verge of completing a move to Manchester City.

The 22-year-old was rumoured to have flown to England over the weekend to finalise a transfer, a day after teammate Bernardo Silva put pen to paper on a £43m deal.

Mendy took to Twitter on Sunday to make clear that he is currently in Paris and not Manchester, however, uploading a picture of himself on the Champs-Elysees and sarcastically adding that "Manchester has changed".


Mendy, also reportedly on the radar of City's Premier League rivals Liverpool, featured 36 times for Monaco this season in all competitions.
