Following a consistent and impactful performance in the last ISL season that helped FC Pune City to finish fourth on the points table, the club has decided to extend Adil Khan's contract by two more years. The 29-year-old midfielder from Goa has scored four goals in 16 games last season.

Pune, 25th June 2018: - The Rajesh Wadhawan Group and Bollywood star Arjun Kapoor co-owned Indian Super League (ISL) club FC Pune City today announced retaining the services of their midfield maestro Adil Khan for the next two seasons.
