A youth product of Nice, Mendy was loaned six months in 2014 to semi-professional club Strasbourg to gain more playing time.[1] He was again loaned eight months later to Ligue 2 side Nîmes,[2] where he made his full professional in September 2014, in a 2–0 Ligue 2 defeat against Gazélec Ajaccio.[3]
On 21 June 2016, Mendy signed for Ligue 1 side Guingamp.[4] The transfer fee was estimated at between €600,000 and 1 million.[5]
In June 2017, Mendy moved to league rivals Bordeaux, signing a four-year deal.[5][6]
Mendy is of Senegalese and Bissau-Guinean descent.[7] He was called up to represent the Guinea-Bissau national team in October 2020.[8][9] Mendy debuted for Guinea-Bissau in a 1-0 Africa Cup of Nations qualification loss to Senegal on 15 November 2020.[10]
