ISL: Jayesh Rane inks permanent deal with Mumbai City FC

Jayesh Rane has signed a permanent deal with Mumbai City FC ahead of the upcoming season of the Indian Super League. Rane spent the 2023-24 season with the Islanders on loan from Bengaluru FC. The midfielder also won the ISL Cup with the club and has signed a contract until the end of the 2024-25 season.

Rane played 20 matches for Mumbai City FC in the previous season and provided four assists. The 31-year-old kicked off his ISL career with Chennaiyin FC in 2014 and went on to win the ISL Cup in 2016.

Subsequently, Rane moved to ATK and won his second ISL trophy in the 2019-20 season. Rane became the only Indian footballer to win the ISL trophy with three different teams after winning it with Mumbai City FC.

Rane has played 230 matches in domestic competitions and thus has all the experience under his belt. The midfielder was delighted to sign a new contract with Mumbai City FC.

Jayesh Rane said as quoted by the official ISL website: “This is one of the proudest moments of my career, signing permanently for my hometown club, Mumbai City FC. As a Mumbaikar, it is a huge honour to represent the club in the biggest competitions. I want to thank Coach Petr Kratky and the club management for their trust and belief in me. I can’t wait to continue this chapter with the club and hopefully win more trophies in the upcoming season.”

Mumbai City head coach Petr Kratky said: “Jayesh is one of the most experienced footballers in Indian football. As a Mumbai native, he understands the club’s values and proudly wears the jersey. His performances last season convinced us of his abilities, and his versatility across the pitch will be invaluable in the coming season. I am confident that Jayesh will be a vital asset for our squad, and we look forward to seeing him contribute to the club and his hometown of Mumbai.”
