Enrique Mendez

An assertive force in the final third, this Costa Rican livewire uses his elite balance and predatory finishing to weave through chaos and find the back of the net with surgical precision. He famously honed his unnatural balance as a boy by dribbling across rain-slicked jungle logs, a quirky ritual that once left him perched atop a confused cow during a match. While his stubborn streak occasionally keeps him from passing, his impeccable first touch and movement make him a constant menace to any defense.
