Milton Mendes (born 25 April 1965) is a Brazilian retired footballer who played mainly as a right back, and the current manager of CR Vasco da Gama.
He spent the better part of his 18-year professional career in Portugal, representing nine and amassing Primeira Liga totals of 87 games and three goals over the course of five seasons. In 2002, he became a manager.
Born in Criciúma, Santa Catarina, Mendes joined CR Vasco da Gama in 1984, after starting his career with Santa Catarina Clube. After a loan at Criciúma Esporte Clube in 1986, he moved abroad for the first time in his career in the 1987 summer, joining Portuguese club Louletano DC.
After featuring regularly for the Algarve team, Mendes signed for Primeira Liga side S.C. Beira-Mar in June 1991. He made his competitive debut for the latter on 24 August, starting in a 2–3 away loss against Boavista FC.
Mendes moved to C.F. Os Belenenses in 1992, also in the main division. The following year he joined fellow league team C.F. União, partnering a host of compatriots and suffering relegation in 1995.
In 1996, Mendes signed for S.C. Espinho in the top flight, and contributed with 12 appearances and two goals in his first and only season. He subsequently resumed his career in the lower leagues, representing A.D. Camacha, A.C.D. São Vicente, C.S.D. Câmara de Lobos and A.D. Machico, retiring with the latter in 2002 at the age of 37.
