Another young Kiwi who has found a home in Europe.
Kyle Mendes (formerly out of Auckland United at age grade level) has landed at FC Hegelmann (TopLyga - 1st tier) in Lithuania. He looks to be getting acclimatized first and foremost by playing a few minutes for their 'B' team in the 2nd tier since his signing.
