ISL 2018-19 will be Andre Bikey's third season in the ISL, and this season Bikey will be playing for his third different franchise in the tournament. Bikey started his ISL journey with the 'Highlanders' of Northeast. Last season the defender played for Jamshedpur FC and was vital for the TATA group-owned franchise.

Andre Bikey has always been a favourite of Steve Coppel, and the British gaffer made sure Bikey signed for ATK this season. Last year Jamshedpur had one of the best defences, and they conceded very few goals. A lot of that was due to the presence of Andre Bikey and Tiri in defence.

The Cameroonian played 15 games for Jamshedpur last season and kept six clean sheets. He made 25 tackles, 11 interceptions, 60 clearances and 12 blocks throughout the campaign.

Bikey also has a knack of scoring a few goals and would have been vital for Jamshedpur if he had been retained. Jamshedpur's loss is ATK's gain.
