Kiyan Nassiri and Lalrinliana Hnamte have completed their transfer to Chennaiyin FC ahead of the Durand Cup. The pair were both left on the bench for most parts, in spite of their talents. And with no assurance over playing time at their former club, they have made a move down south to earn more playing time under Owen Coyle, who is building an ambitious new project with the Marina Machans.

Gurkirat showed flashes of his brilliance as he broke out at Mumbai City FC over the last season. And now, he has joined Nassiri and Hnamte as another up-and-coming youngster to join Coyle at Chennaiyin.

Nawaz, on the other hand, has been on the bench as the backup for Phurba Lachenpa at City. But with Debjit Majumder now at East Bengal, he will likely be the starting choice for Coyle between the sticks.

Daniel Chima Chukwu, Elsinho Dias, Laldinpuia and Jitendra Singh have joined Chennaiyin FC as Owen Coyle turns to his former club for reinforcements. Laldinpuia and Elsinho are both huge additions to the club’s central defence, while Chukwu can provide experience in attack after spending several years in India.

Jitendra Singh has also swapped JFC for Chennaiyin after spending five years with them. The young defensive midfielder could prove to be a shrewd signing for the club in the long run.
