PANJIM: FC Goa completed their foreign quota of signings for the ongoing season after having secured the services of Irish star Carl McHugh, the Club can officially confirm. The 30-year-old has put pen-to-paper on a two-year contract with the Gaurs, which will see him wear their iconic orange beyond the 2023-24 season.
A two-time winner of the Hero Indian Super League (ISL), McHugh brings with him a wealth of experience in Indian football, thereby sustaining the pattern that the Club has followed of late in terms of new signings.
The former ATK and Mohun Bagan Super Giant footballer is the tenth new addition to the Club this summer, following hot on the heels of Rowllin Borges, Udanta Singh, Sandesh Jhingan, Boris Singh, Raynier Fernandes, Paulo Retre, Carlos Martinez, Odei Onaindia and Victor Rodriguez.
“I’m really grateful for the opportunity to represent this Club and I will be doing everything in my power to help make it successful,” Carl McHugh said, after signing on the dotted line for FC Goa.
“When I became aware of FC Goa’s interest, it was something I was immediately interested in as well. I think the Club has made some very good signings, and obviously the appointment of coach Manolo Marquez was important.
