Mendes has yet to prove his talent in England. |
Mendes, 20 years old, currently plays for Hull City in England. Prior to that, Ronaldinho's son spent a year training and playing with Burnley's U21 team. Mendes made 5 appearances in the Premier League Cup, scoring 1 goal and providing 2 assists. However, these numbers were not enough for Mendes to be given a chance to play for Burnley's first team.
Mendes saw England as the ideal place to develop his career. But after a period of trying his luck, things didn't go as planned.
Mendes began his career at the Cruzeiro academy, which has produced top stars like Ronaldo Nazario. He then moved to Barcelona, playing for the youth teams at La Masia before leaving Spain to seek new opportunities.
In an interview with the BBC , Mendes candidly shared: “I don’t feel any pressure. I’ve always been clear that I am who I am and my father is who he is. It’s normal for people to see me as Ronaldinho’s son, but that doesn’t affect how I play football. I don’t mind at all.”
Mendes is determined to break into the Hull City first team and compete for promotion with his teammates. His current contract is only for one year, until the end of the 2025/26 season.
