In the auction held in August, U Mumba spent Rs 1.015 crore to rope in Sunil Kumar which was the highest price paid for any Indian player. The team retained Iranian Amirmohammad Zafardanesh defender Rinku while raider Manjeet and newcomers Stuwart Singh and Amin Ghorbani of Iran were also added.
U Mumba will also have the combination of Sunil and Parvesh, the Asian Games gold-winning “Su-Par” pair featuring in the tournament.
“While (the) last season started well, it didn’t end as we hoped. I understand what we need to work on, and that’s our focus moving forward,” said U Mumba head coach Mazandarani.
