Benjamin Mendy files a claim against Manchester City

The French international has decided to sue last season’s treble winners for multi-millions of pounds after they refused to pay him his wages. The 29-year-old filed a claim with the employment tribunal in the last few days claiming an unauthorised deduction after he was charged with rape and sexual assault in 2021.

Benjamin Mendy was found not guilty on all counts early this year (2023) and he is seeking the monies that Manchester City owes him until the end of his contract in June 2023.
