Grigori Giovanni Méndez Granados (born 30 December 1972) is a Colombian football manager and former player who played as a defender.
Career
Méndez was born in Bogotá, and played for Independiente Santa Fe before moving to the United States in 2000 to work as a women's coach. He subsequently worked in Argentina with Quilmes before returning to his home country to work at Academia.[1]
In 2010, Méndez returned to Santa Fe to work as a youth coach.[2] He was also an assistant manager of the main squad in 2019, when Gerardo Bedoya was a manager.[3]
On 23 August 2021, Méndez was named manager of Santa Fe's main squad, replacing Harold Rivera.[4] He remained in the position until the end of the season when he was recalled to the club's under-20 squad,[5] but was appointed as interim manager of the first squad shortly after the dismissal of manager Martín Cardetti in late April 2022.[6]
On 27 May 2022, Méndez was announced as manager of Jaguares de Córdoba.[7] On 13 September, Jaguares announced his resignation from the position.[8]
