João Mendes, the son of legendary Brazil forward Ronaldinho, is on the verge of signing with English Championship side Burnley. The 19-year-old Brazilian winger is set to join Burnley after spending last season in Barcelona's academy.
Reports suggest that Mendes has agreed to a two-year deal with Burnley, although the official paperwork is yet to be finalized. Burnley head coach Scott Parker confirmed that the club is in advanced talks with Mendes but emphasized that the young player should not be burdened with excessive expectations.
