Joao Mendes, the son of legendary Brazilian forward Ronaldinho, aims to pursue his career in England. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He is currently on the verge of signing a contract with the "Hull City" club. Born in 2005, the footballer shows a particular interest in the English championship.
Previously, he tried himself in the youth team of the "Burnley" club. Joao Mendes does not want to be compared to his father and expresses a clear position on this matter.
That is why he previously decided to leave the "Barcelona" club, as it was where his father's brightest years took place and where constant comparisons and pressure existed. Ronaldinho never played in England, which is why his son prefers to play in this country.
Joao Mendes aims to follow his own independent football path in the future and is highly motivated in this regard. Despite his young age, he is ready to prove himself in the English championship.
The main goal for the footballer is to be recognized for his unique style and under his own name. Additionally, he wants to show himself not as an unquestionable successor of his father but as a representative of a new generation.
This will be an important factor in his future career. Joao Mendes playing in England can open new opportunities not only for his personal development but also for Brazilian footballers.
His decision is being met with interest by the team and fans.
