In 2013, she moved to Italy's ASD Riviera di Romagna, and the next year she signed for WFC Rossiyanka in Russia. In 2016 Mendes signed a contract with Djurgårdens IF for one year.[5]

In Portugal's 2–1 win over Scotland, Mendes scored the national team's first-ever goal at major international tournament finals.[6] She scored again in the final group match against England, but Portugal lost 2–1 and was eliminated.[7]
