Mumbai FC continue to bulid up a competitive squad for the upcoming I-League as they have retained the services of 27-Year Old defender, Pratik Chaudhari.
The defender came into focus with strong performances at the back with Mumbai in the I-League last season and was also part of the Kerala Blasters squad in the Indian Super League 2016, helping them reach the final of the tournament.
The 27 year-old made 13 I-League appearances for the Mumbaikars in 2015-16 and was part of the Mohun Bagan squad that won the I-League in 2014-15.
Pratik was ecstatic to be back after signing the extension as he said, “It feels good to be back. Mumbai is my home. I was born and brought up here, and it feels great to be playing for my city.”
The defender underlined the ambitions he has for Mumbai this season, “We finished 5th last season and we want to go a step further and fight for the top spot. We have a new coach to guide us. I am really looking forward to the upcoming season.”
Expect some crunching tackles and smart defending as Pratik forms part of the backline. With the I-League only two weeks away, Pratik Chaudhari will be slotted straight into training with the current squad.
