“I would like to thank the Mohammedan Sporting Club Officials for the opportunity to once again lead this great club and hope that I will be able to bring back a smile to our incredible and loyal supporters,” coach Mridul Banerjee said.
“There are many talented players in the team and I believe with the right guidance, I will be able to get the best out of them,” he added.
“We believe Mridul Banerjee is the right man for the job. He is no stranger to the club and clearly understands our philosophy of playing attractive and winning football. Mridul Banerjee will be given all the support he needs to take the club forward,” said Mohammedan Sporting Club general secretary Ghazal Uz Zafar.
