VIDEO: Mohun Bagan SG extend contract of head coach Juan Ferrando!

Indian Super League champions Mohun Bagan SG have announced the contract extension of head coach Juan Ferrando for the 2023/24 season.

Mohun Bagan SG owner Dr. Sanjiv Goenka said, “We are delighted to extend the contract of Juan (Ferrando) for the new season. Juan led us to the ISL trophy last season. We are expecting more success and trophies from him in the upcoming season.”

Juan Ferrando moved to join the then ATK Mohun Bagan in December 2021 from ISL rivals FC Goa and he faced some tough months in Kolkata last season before lifting the ISL-9 trophy following a penalty shootout win against Bengaluru FC.

Mohun Bagan SG are looking to strengthen their squad over the summer transfer window ahead of their AFC Cup commitments and looking to defend their title in the upcoming ISL-10.

Juan Ferrando said, “I am pleased to continue working as the coach of Mohun Bagan Super Giant. I am grateful to Sanjiv Goenka, the director, for giving me this opportunity. I assure our team’s supporters that I will give my best, and we will strive for further success in the upcoming season.”

“As the reigning champions, we bear greater responsibility, and the expectations from our fans will be high. The philosophy of the club is to continuously improve and achieve success. This time, we are focused on building a stronger team. Our aim is not only to defend our title but also to excel in the AFC Cup. Our talented footballers will gather in Kolkata on July 15, and from that very day, we will commence our preparations for the upcoming season.”
