Amrinder Singh, Alwyn George extend Bengaluru FC deals
Bengaluru FC, on Thursday, announced that goalkeeper Amrinder Singh and Alwyn George had signed new one-year deals, which would keep them with the Blues until next season. Amrinder makes his loan move from Pune FC permanent, while the club activated the one-year extension clause on Alwyn’s contract.
Amrinder kept nine clean sheets on his way to winning the I-League’s Goalkeeper of the Year award, an accolade that the 22-year-old says played a huge part in his decision.
“I’m happy to have signed a new deal with Bengaluru FC. The progress that I’ve made as a goalkeeper at this club has helped me win the ‘I-League’s Best Goalkeeper and I’d like to thank the coaching staff, the management and the fans for all their support. I’m looking forward to another season with this club and scripting more history,” said Amrinder.
Midfielder Alwyn George, who signed from Dempo SC in the summer, has penned an extension on his current deal after a string of impressive performances; most notably in a 5-3 win against Ayeyawady United in the AFC Cup where he scored a brace.
Club COO Mustafa Ghouse said the club is delighted to have re-signed the duo, who he believes are an integral part of the Blues’ squad.
“Amrinder has been one of the standout performers at the club this season. He had to fight for this place in the squad and once he got it, he held on to it with a string of good performances. Everyone knows what a valuable signing he’s been and we’re excited to have him with us. As for Alwyn, we all know what a talent he is. He came into his own as the season progressed and we strongly believe he is one for the future and
