Indian Super League outfit NorthEast United FC has signed the services of forward Guillermo Fernandez to strengthen their attack. The Spaniard has played for clubs like Elche, CD Numancia, and most recently for Cultural Leonesa in his career.
Fernandez kicked off his journey with Athletic Bilbao, making his first-team debut in La Liga in 2013. Thus, the 31-year-old has the experience of playing in the top division of Spanish football and will want to make the most of his experience.
Expressing his delight in joining the Highlanders, Fernandez said, “I am very excited to work with the team and coaching staff. The club has shown faith in me, and I am ready to repay them and set my mark in the Indian Super League.”
Speaking about the latest addition, head coach Juan Pedro Benali said, “Fernandez is a very experienced professional; his career says it all. He will give us the much-needed boost in our attack, and we are happy to have him here.”
Mandar Tamhane, CEO of NorthEast United FC, shared his thoughts on the signing: “We feel we have got the right fit for our team. Fernandez has played at the top level of football in Europe; his expertise will not only bolster our attack but also serve as a catalyst for growth and development for our entire squad.”
On the other hand, Bengaluru FC has announced the signings of Spanish forward Edgar Mendez, and defenders Rahul Bheke and Mohammed Salah. While Mendez and Salah have signed a one-year contract with the Blues, Bheke returns to the club after three years for a two-year deal.
Bheke has all the experience under his belt and played for Mumbai City FC in the previous season. The defender played a key role in taking the Islanders to glory in the last edition.
