How do you play Júnior Mendes?
Their place is out wide as LM. They work by stretching the pitch and attacking the full-back one-on-one; the more isolated with their marker, the better. They can also play ST and LW. The game also rewards them with roles like Winger, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
What are their strengths?
Their weapons: top speed (80) and acceleration (70). Their top speed is very good and it's the trait to build their game around.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their weak points: curve (47) and crossing (58). Pick their role to hide those gaps.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 1 M€, with 1 K€ in wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
How much will they grow?
They start from 62 with a ceiling of 70 — that's +8 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Give them continuity and a good role so that potential doesn't stay on paper.
