Pronay Halder

Central Midfielder: Pronay Halder

The tough midfielder from Bengal will return to FC Goa after a short stint in the past that was half ruined by injury, and with the other half of his spell showcasing his talent and technicality in midfield. Halder will likely take the defensive midfielder role in Lobera's starting XI.

Central Attacking Midfielder: Edu Bedia

The talented and experienced midfielder looks likely to start, having vast experience across different European leagues in the Spanish and German leagues. Bedia could look to play a central role in the heart of the FC Goa midfield, creating chances for the forwards.

Central Midfielder: Ahmed Jahouh

The Moroccan tank, Jahouh will definitely feature in Lobera's starting XI as the midfielder will look to add strength and solidarity to the FC Goa midfield. The Moroccan has won the first division in Morocco numerous times and also played a key role in Morocco's Arab Cup of Nations win in 2012. The 6'1", box-to-box midfielder looks certain to play a pivotal role this season.
