Former Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy will receive "the majority of his unpaid salary" from the Premier League club, a judge has ruled.
The France international, who was charged with rape and sexual assault in August 2021, took City to an employment tribunal to claim about £11m before tax in unpaid wages after he was suspended without pay from September 2021 until he left in June 2023.
Last year Mendy was cleared of a series of rape and attempted rape charges.
Judge Joanne Dunlop ruled that City were entitled to withhold Mendy’s salary for the periods he was in custody, which amounted to about five of the 22 months he was not paid.
