Every set-piece Chennaiyin FC prepares of reminds us of Elano Blumer. The Brazilian midfielder was well-known for his accurate and dangerous set-pieces which came to the fore in the ISL too. He spent the 2014/15 and 2015/16 season with Chennaiyin FC.

Elano Blumer was a key man at Marco Materazzi's squad, playing 26 matches across the 2 years. He scored 12 ISL goals and provided 5 assists. The attacking midfielder will be known as ISL's first 'Golden Boot' award winner with eight goals in the inaugural season. The former Manchester City player was used as a sharp link between Chennaiyin's combat defence and sharp offence.

After leaving Chennaiyin FC, Elano signed with Santos and remained there for a season before retiring from the game. Elano Blumer still remains one of the fan favourites of ISL and the fans still wish to see him in Chennai colours.
