Benjamin Mendy Stunned by the High Level of Play in Poland

Currently in Poland, Benjamin Mendy, 31, plays for Pogoń Szczecin. He has participated in two Ekstraklasa matches this season, accumulating a total of 69 minutes on the field. After his first start against GKS Katowice, which ended in a 2-0 defeat, the French player shared his experiences in this league during an interview with TVP Sport.

“I have felt good since my first days at Pogoń. The people are friendly, and the city is beautiful. We really have a solid team, and we need to improve, as our supporters deserve better. We have everything we need to perform well. I know the results haven’t been great, and that needs to change. The Polish league is very intense and physical. The teams run a lot, and there are many high-quality players. I have been pleasantly surprised by what I’ve seen.” The former Manchester City player is eager to step up and contribute to his team’s success.
