Houboulang Mendes, a right-back, has transferred to Servette from the Dutch top-division club Fortuna Sittard. The 28-year-old player holds both Guinea-Bissau and French nationality and has signed a contract in Geneva until 2028, which includes an option for an additional season. The move follows a period in which he made only six appearances for Fortuna Sittard since last summer, none of them from the start. Prior to his time at Fortuna Sittard, Mendes gained experience in Ligue 1 and LaLiga while under contract with Lorient and Almeria. The transfer fee was not disclosed by Servette. He has been capped six times for Guinea-Bissau. His market value is €550k, according to Transfermarkt.
