Mendy played 33 games in all competitions for Rennes last season as they finished third in Ligue 1 to qualify for the Champions League. He becomes the second goalkeeper to make the switch from Rennes to Chelsea following Petr Cech's move in 2004. Chelsea, who finished fourth last term to qualify for the Champions League in manager Frank Lampard's first campaign in charge, face West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League on Saturday.
