All Transfer News For ATK Mohun Bagan For ISL 2021-22
The Kolkata giants are going all out by signing excellent talents like Hugo Bousmous, who displays exceptional footwork, possesses great dribbling skills and can really add to the strength of the team by bringing his technical skills to the game.
The Mariners have already signed goalkeeper Amrinder Singh from Mumbai FC who has won the ISL League Shield and the ISL title with the Blues. Not only that, the Green and Maroons have signed Liston Colaco and Joni Kauko ,who had played for Finland this year in the prestigious Euro Cup 2020. By signing Liston Colaco from Hyderabad FC, ATK Mohun Bagan have made him the most expensive player in the ISL. The Kolkata giants released 3 players from their squad, namely Salam Singh (free transfer to Chennaiyan FC), Aryan Niraj Lamba (Undisclosed fee to Kerala United) and Edu Garcia.
The future of Roy Krishna is still uncertain but if he decides to stay with ATK, the squad will become exceedingly strong. The likes of Pritam Kotal, Sandesh Jhingan, Subhasish Bose, Asutosh Mehta and now Amrinder Singh will form a great defence which will be hard to penetrate. Not just the defence, the midfield also looks promising with Carl McHugh, Lenny Rodrigues, Manvir, Kauko, Soosairaj and now Liston and Bousmous also making the list.
I think it would not be false to say that ATK Mohun Bagan is the strongest team in the ISL at the moment and can certainly win the title this time.
