Ronaldinho’s son set to sign for Burnley after leaving Barcelona

Ronaldinho’s son João Mendes is set to sign for English Championship side Burnley following a spell with Barcelona.

Mendes joined Barcelona in March 2023 after a successful trial with the Catalan giants and linked up with the club’s Juvenil A side.

However, we haven’t heard much about Mendes since then and it has now emerged that he will play for Scott Parker’s side in the 2024-25 campaign.
