Raheem Sterling, Bernardo Silva and Riyad Mahrez all lent me money – Footballer, Benjamin Mendy reveals how he survived during court trial for false r@pe allegations

Former Manchester City defender, Benjamin Mendy has disclosed that he had to borrow money during his legal challenges.

The France international was accused of r@pe and s3xual assault when he was a City player and was now suspended by his club without any form of pay to fight his legal battles.

In his witness statement while taking Man City to court for a refund of his pay as he has been acquitted of all rp@e and sexual assault charges, the defender who now plays for Lorient in France, praised Raheem Sterling, Bernardo Silva and Riyad Mahrez for helping him with finances to pay his legal fees and support his family.


“Raheem Sterling, Bernardo Silva and Riyad Mahrez all lent me money to help me try and pay my legal fees and support my family,” Mendy, now with Lorient, said in his witness statement.


Mendy said he rejected all attempts by Manchester City to cancel his contract as he “wanted to go back and train with his team”.


In his witness statement, he added: “I believe that it is fair and just for me to be paid the wages that I would have earned but for being falsely arrested for crimes that I did not commit.
