FORMER Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy has urged the club ‘to do the honourable thing’ and stump up wages withheld after he was wrongly accused of raping women.
The former Blues defender sued the club for more than £11m in ‘unauthorised deductions’ from his pay whilst he was accused of rape, attempted rape, and sexual assault.
He was later found not guilty of all the charges.
The French World Cup winner took the club to an Employment Tribunal over the payments, which was heard over two days last month.
In a ruling published yesterday, employment judge Joanne Dunlop said: “I have concluded that Mr Mendy is entitled to recover some, but not all, of the sums claimed.”
She ruled in favour of Mr Mendy apart from the periods when he breached bail ‘due to his own culpable actions’.
