Luis Ángel Mendoza Escamilla (born 3 February 1990), also known as El Quick, is a Mexican professional footballer who plays as a winger.

Club career

Mendoza made his debut with Tigres UANL on 18 February 2010, against Santos Laguna, coming on as a substitute. He played in five more games, starting once and afterwards he was sent to Ascenso MX club La Piedad. For the Apertura 2012, Mendoza signed with San Luis.

Club América

Mendoza's consistency and good performances earned the attention of América, whom he eventually signed for prior to the Apertura 2013 tournament. Mendoza made his debut on 31 July 2013, against León, and eventually became an undisputed starter in the club's starting-eleven. His best performance of the tournament came on 24 August against Morelia, where he scored a brace and had an assist in América's 3–1 victory in the Estadio Azteca. On 14 December 2014, Mendoza received a red card for mocking his opponents in the Liga MX final against Tigres UANL in which his team won 3–0.[1]

International career

In October 2013, Mendoza received his first call up to the senior national team (managed by former Club América coach Miguel Herrera) for a friendly against Finland and the two-legged 2014 FIFA World Cup playoff against New Zealand, although he did not play in any of the three matches.
