Joao Mendes has made his debut for Barcelona.

Mendes is the son of Barcelona legend Ronaldinho and signed for Barca last week after leaving Cruzeiro.

He made his debut today with Bara's Juvenil A team in a friendly match behind closed doors played at the Joan Gamper Sports City against the Manchester United's youth team.

Barca had announced the friendly will serve as preparation for the UEFA Youth League round of 16 tie that they will play against AZ Alkmaar on March 1.

Ronaldinho Jr featured against United and his performance suggested he will need time to adjust to Barca's style of play.
