Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy has urged his teammates to complete their ‘positive’ 2020-21 season with titles ahead of their FA Cup final clash with Leicester City on Saturday.
Thomas Tuchel’s men are in the running for two trophies with the Uefa Champions League also in sight as they battle Manchester City in the final on May 29.
On a personal note, Mendy admitted that it has been a ‘tough’ debut campaign for him in England because there is no winter break.
Prior to his switch to Stamford Bridge last September, the Senegal international’s playing career has been in France where there is usually a break during the festive period.
“This was the first season for me without a winter break so, it was a very tough time mentally and physically because this is another rhythm, I had to adapt,” Mendy told BBC Sport Africa.
“It was my first year like this, so, it will be enriching, it will help me a lot for the following years.
“Then the new coach arrived, and the team performed well straight away, me included. So, today we arrive at the end of this season, a season that for the moment has been positive, but we need to complete that with titles.”
