Olympique Marseille goalkeeper Steve Mandanda has hailed Manchester City fullback Benjamin Mendy.

The pair are former OM teammates and also played together for France.

Ahead of tonight's Champions League clash, Mandanda said: "There are many memories, in Marseille and in the national team.

"He is a boy that I love very much, very endearing. He had an extraordinary career development.

"He finds himself in one of the biggest clubs and it is deserved, because he has a lot of quality."
