Brazilian football legend Ronaldinho's son Joao Mendes is trying to follow in his father's footsteps.
It has been officially announced that the 18-year-old forward has signed a contract with the Barcelona club.
However, initially the talented footballer will have to demonstrate his skills in the U-19 team and only then will it be decided whether to give him a chance in the main team.
Joao's contract with Barcelona is valid until mid-2024.
