Modou Sougou – Mumbai City FC
Another of Jorge Costa’s signings, the pair will once again be reunited at Mumbai City FC after their successful association at Romanian Liga 1 club CFR Cluj. The duo was also together at Academica in Portugal.
The Senegalese has spent most of his career in Portugal and France with a move to French giants, Marseille being the highlight of his career. He also has 12 caps under his name for the Senegal national team.
Mumbai coach Jorge Costa said, “He has shown his quality in the best leagues in the world and he has the speed and talent our team needs."
Much is expected from the former Marseille winger and he will undoubtedly be the team’s focal point in attack both as a creative presence and as a goal scorer.
Blessed with pace, intelligence of movement and finishing, Sougou has all the qualities of a bonafide matchwinner.
