“First of all, I would like to thank Mrs. Vita Dani and the Chennaiyin family for putting their faith in me. Honestly, I am looking forward to this incredible journey. This will be a great experience and a challenge where we will push further as one team. This is not my first time outside of Germany, therefore I am aware of most circumstances and I am ready to move forward with Chennaiyin FC. I can’t wait to get started,” were Thomas Brdaric’s first words as Chennaiyin FC boss. 

He has been in charge of several German sides in the lower leagues. But, his most prominent experience comes as the head coach of the Wolfsburg U21 team. 

Chennaiyin FC finished eighth in the table this past season, and will be looking to turn things around in the coming season. They have been quite active in the transfer market as well, and with the arrival of an experienced coach like Brdaric, things are looking good for them ahead of the new campaign.
