Armando Jesús “Chiri” Méndez Alcorta (born 31 March 1996) is a Uruguayan professional footballer who plays as a right-back for Newell's Old Boys.
In 2019, Méndez returned from Fenix to Nacional, where he became known as "Hulk" to his teammates due to his intense weight training and protein diet, which included eating ten eggs a day.[3] He attributed his quick jump to the Nacional first team to his weight training.[4]
On 7 January 2022, Méndez joined Argentine club Newell's Old Boys on a deal until the end of 2024.[5]
