Sony Norde represented the Haiti National football team in the Copa America Centenario last year

Haitian winger Sony Norde has arguably been the best foreigner in the I-League for the last few years. His excellent display in his first season with the Mariners helped them lift their first I-League title in the 2014-15 season, ending a 13-year trophy drought.

Sony continued his dream run with the Kolkata-based club the next year too, steering them to a record 14th Federation Cup title. A very skilful player, he can turn the fate of a match within minutes. The footballer from the Caribbean islands is also a specialist in set-piece movements and even scored an excellent goal from a free-kick against arch-rivals East Bengal last season.

He already became a fan favourite when he overlooked numerous offers from ISL cubs and signed for Bagan for the fourth season on the trot. Missing the I-League title by a whisker in the each of the last two seasons, the hopes of the passionate Mohun Bagan supporters will rest on their talisman.
