The club have already signed Belgium forward Eden Hazard from Chelsea for a fee that could exceed £150m and Serbia striker Luka Jovic from Eintracht Frankfurt for a reported £53m.
In March, they signed Porto defender Eder Militao for £42.7m.
Former Paris St-Germain youngster Mendy joined Lyon from Le Havre in 2017 and made 79 appearances for the Ligue 1 club in two seasons. He played in every game of their Champions League run to the last-16 last season.
He won the first of three caps for France in November and started Tuesday’s 4-0 win against Andorra in Euro 2020 qualifying.
He’s a physical left-back who could help the team if Zidane decides to implement a transition-oriented system. However, if the team has the possession of the ball, Marcelo’s creativity will still be helpful.
