ISL: Mumbai defender Davinder ruled out with injuryMumbai, Oct 18 (IANS) Indian Super League (ISL) franchise Mumbai City FC defender Davinder Singh has suffered an injury to his anterior cruciate ligament and will miss the remainder of the season.

The 23-year-old will undergo surgery on his knee later this month and will continue his rehabilitation with the club.

The young defender signed for the club last season and was handed his debut in an away fixture against Kerala Blasters.

 

He went on to make a total of eight league appearances in the 2017-18 season and showed incredible promise, following which he signed a two-year extension to his contract with the club.

"All of us at Mumbai City FC wish Davinder a swift recovery and hope that he returns to the football pitch soon, doing what he does best," the ISL franchise said in a statement.

Mumbai, meanwhile, have brought in 27-year-old defender Joyner Lourenco. The Goan full-back will replace Davinder in the Mumbai City squad for the 2018-19 season of the ISL.
