Carlos Mendes Gomes
Carlos Mendes Gomes attacks space and times runs behind the line to drive Exeter City forward on loan from Bolton. He excels in quick, smart linkups. He came through Atlético Madrid's youth system before moving to England to seek opportunities. In 2021 he starred for Morecambe, scoring 15 goals and delivering the 107th-minute winning penalty to seal promotion. Carlos Mendes Gomes then joined Luton Town for the 2021/22 season and later moved to Bolton Wanderers in 2023 before a 2025 Exeter City loan. He has represented Guinea-Bissau, including appearances in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations. His pace and balance let him press high and beat defenders, linking play with one-touch layoffs. The forward drives at defenders and finishes moves with sharp runs beyond the line.
