Sony Norde played a major role in Mohun Bagan's 2014/15 I-League winning campaign as well as this year's Federation Cup triumph, scoring a total of 16 goals for the Kolkata based club. He also represented Mohun Bagan in this year's AFC Cup, where the club finished as the Group Leaders. His absence in the R-16 match against Tampines Rovers proved costly to the mariners, as they lost the match 2-1 and bowed out of the competition.
The 26-year-old winger from the island-nation of Haiti finished with three goals and three assists during his debut season of the ISL with Mumbai City FC last year. His outstanding performance with the team made for an undoubtedly clear choice of the foreign players for the upcoming season as well.
Sony Norde has represented the Haiti national football team at both the youth and senior levels. Having represented his country 21 times, he has also made an appearance for the Haiti national team in the CONCACAF Gold Cup. He is currently representing his national team at Copa America Centenario and played for whole 90 minutes against Ecuador in the Group B tie.
