ISL 2018-19: 5 foreigners who have flopped after shifting clubs

#1 Kalu Uche (Delhi Dynamos to ATK)

Kalu Uche could not make the same impact like he did for Delhi

Kalu Uche was The Lions' sole saviour in many of the matches they played last season. The Nigerian forward was the go-to man for the Delhi Dynamos. He scored 13 goals and got 2 assists in the 15 matches he featured for the Dynamos last season. Uche was also their captain and always led from the front.

Things have not gone right for Uche ever since he made a move to ATK ahead of the 2018-19 season. As it is the Nigerian was struggling and only scored 1 goal in 5 games for the Red and Whites. However, to add to his woes he suffered a quadriceps muscle tear last month. It was a grade three tear and Uche is currently receiving treatment in Barcelona. He will only be fit by the end of January next year or early February 2019. However, nothing can be said for certain.

ATK are currently at the 6th position in the ISL table and will hope they can get the prolific striker back as soon as possible. Till then, they have got Alfaro on loan from FC Pune City as his replacement.

These are indeed worrying times for Steve Coppell and ATK as they only have 10 goals in their 11 matches and do not pose much of a threat up front as Balwant Singh and Everton Santos are also misfiring.
