Ryan Mendes is Cape Verde's all-time record holder for both caps and goals and the captain leading them into their first World Cup. He made his name in France with Le Havre and Lille, had a Premier League-era loan at Nottingham Forest, and has since played across the Middle East and Turkey, now turning out for Igdir FK. A winger with longevity and a goalscorer's instinct, he is the emotional and statistical heartbeat of the squad.
- Cape Verde's all-time leader in caps and international goals
- Played for Lille and had a loan spell at Nottingham Forest
- Captains the side at the nation's first World Cup
