The final installment of the FedEx #NextInLine series is here. Throughout the UCL series, we’ve aimed to shine a light on another three of the most talented, young UEFA Champions League stars, as they embark on the next chapter of their journeys to reach the summit of European football.
In episode 3, Nuno Mendes, Portuguese prodigy, and Paris defender, details his career to date in the third and final episode of the series. Mendes discusses his early memories of playing 7-a-side in his hometown, being scouted while playing for Despertar at Casal de Cambra, to his UEFA Champions League experience playing alongside and learning from footballing icons Messi, Mbappe and Neymar Jr.
The episode delves into Mendes’ inspirations and ambitions in the game, the role that performance analytics and data play in his elite preparation, and just how special it is to represent Paris at the Parc des Princes. Will this finally be the year that the Parisiens reach the summit of European club football?
