Internet Desk: Hero ISL franchise Mumbai City FC completes the signing of Spanish striker Rafa Jorda. The 33-year-old Valencia academy product and experienced attacker last played for Spanish third tier club UE Llagostera. But the forward previously represented La Liga clubs like Levante and Romanian club Rapid Bucharesti.
Mumbai City FC have confirmed their second signing in two days in the form of Spanish striker Rafa Jorda. The 33-year-old last played for Spanish third tier club UE Llagostera before leaving the club last month.
Mumbai City FC are keen to add more attacking firepower to their squad after having to part ways with elite strikers Diego Forlan and Sunil Chhetri following the end of ISL-3. The Mumbai outfit added Balwant Singh to their strikeforce during the draft, but their attack still seemingly lacked bite, leading to the acquisition of former PSG man Santos yesterday and Jorda today.
Jorda has scored 59 goals in all his career of more than 200 matches, a surprisingly low return for a striker. He has played in the Champions League during his time in Georgia with Dinamo Tbilisi.
