“I was getting just over £400 a month" - Benjamin Mendy has a secret love child aged 3, says holiday romance Yolanda Aguera

Benjamin Mendy reportedly has a secret love child with a lady named Yolanda Aguera. The full-back met Aguera in Barcelona during a holiday and the pair went to a party at a mutual friend's house.

Aguera recently claimed that Mendy pays her £400 a month to take care of the child after she had asked for a four figure payment. Mendy used to get paid £90,000 per week by Manchester City. However, since being accused of rape allegations in September 2021. he has been without pay. The Frenchman is also suspended at the moment.

Speaking about Benjamin Mendy and his child, Aguera recently said (via The Sun):

“The last three years of single parenting have been hard. Initially I was getting up two hours every night to breastfeed and helping to look after my grandmother during the day before she went into a retirement home."

She added:

“Since my daughter started at nursery school this year I’ve had a bit more freedom to look for work, but I’m having to focus on jobs that will enable me to fit in with her timetables. The money Ben is paying will help, but I’m worried about how I’m going to make ends meet and ensure our daughter doesn’t want for anything."

Aguera also said:

“I was getting just over £400 a month in state benefits up until they ran out a week or so ago. My mortgage is £550 a month, so at the moment, I’m relying on the little savings I have and help from my parents.”
