Jesús Mendoza Aguirre (born 23 February 1977 in Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Xerez CD in Segunda División, as a defender.
After starting professionally with lowly Racing Club Portuense, Mendoza moved in 1999 to hometown's Xerez CD. In nine of the following ten seasons, he never appeared in less than 35 games, being instrumental in the Andalusians' promotions to the second division (2000–01) and the top level (2008–09).
In the 2009–10 season, Mendoza could only appear in 12 league games, as Xerez was immediately relegated from the first division. He made his debut in the competition on 30 August 2009, in a 0–2 loss at RCD Mallorca.
In late 2010, 33-year old Mendoza renewed his link with his main club for a further season, whilst accepting to take a pay cut.[1]
