According to the accusations, Benjamin Mendy allegedly attacked three women, including one below the age of 18. at his home in Cheshire between October 2020 and August 2021. The soccer player is also accused of sexually assaulting a woman in early January 2021. The Manchester City football club had already suspended the defender prior to his removal from FC 25 Coins due to the charges placed against him. A second man has also been connected to the police investigation into Mendy, but he was released on bail.
Benjamin Mendy had an application for bail denied by Judge Steven Everett at Manchester crown court. The hearing for this application was held behind closed doors and lasted nearly an hour, with Mendy not attending himself. Until the upcoming trial, Mendy is in custody at HMP Altcourse in Merseyside.
Considering the fact that Benjamin Mendy has yet to be found guilty, he may return to FC 25. Depending on the results of the trial, however, he may never return to the FC franchise. The transfer market is packed with Mendy cards, suggesting that a large chunk of early access FC 25 players received him in FC 25 Ultimate Team packs ahead of launch.
September 2021 was a strong month for gaming thanks to releases such as Tales of Arise, Life Is Strange: True Colors, and Game of the Year-candidate Deathloop. However, even with the wide range of high-quality titles throughout the month, October could be even stronger. In fact, October has the opportunity to be the biggest month of the year for game releases.
Developers and publishers often find it wise to release games during the fall season, right before holiday breaks and Black Friday. This year, October specifically appears to be a prime choice. While September had indie darling hits like Kena: Bridge of Souls, Eastward, Sable, and more, October is set to provide variety with largely AAA titles.
FC is among the highest-selling games worldwide each year, and FC 25 will likely be no different. Leading up to its launch on the first of October, FC 25 gameplay has been released and fans are chomping at the bit to see what new features will be available. It is not always easy to keep a game fresh when it goes through yearly iterations, and the FC franchise is no exception. However, fans will assuredly line up to buy FIFA 25 Coins when it launches.
