Ryan Mendes brings 99 caps and 22 international goals for Cape Verde at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, lining up as a forward. At club level they play for Iğdır FK (TUR). That record is the base the model weighs alongside current form and the strength of the group.
The model rates Mendes's anytime-goalscoring probability at 4.2% at this tournament — a long shot read. That comes from an expected 0.07 goal contributions (xG + xA) over the projected minutes. Like every probability on the site, it is a long-run likelihood, not a guarantee that a goal arrives in any one match.
