Iain Hume has found success wherever he has gone

Iain Hume has been arguably the best performer in the Indian Super League across the two seasons. He was named the Hero of the League in 2014 after almost single-handedly guiding Kerala Blasters to the finals. He joined Atletico de Kolkata for the next edition and was a prolific goalscorer for them, notching up 11 goals to become the second highest in ISL 2 behind Stiven Mendoza.

Iain Hume, though playing as a striker, is a workhorse who runs tirelessly for his team. The former Leicester City man is an asset to any team he plays for and last season Atletico identified his talent and made him their first choice striker. Hume didn’t disappoint by any means. Though criticised at the beginning of the season for the lack of goals, he silenced his critics by scoring a hattrick against Mumbai City FC.

Hume added 11 goals to his ISL tally of 5 which he scored in his first season with Kerala Blasters taking his total to 16, which makes him the second highest goalscorer in ISL till date. Hume renewed his contract with Atletico de Kolkata this season and will hope to recreate his form in the upcoming season as well.
