File Pic[/caption] Internet Desk: Mohun Bagan have called former Dempo SC and DSK Shivajians defender to replace Scottish defender Daniel Seaborne who had left Mohun Bagan surprisingly on the day of his signing at the IFA office. Mohun Bagan who are currently playing with one foreigner in their whole squad felt that they need a foreign defender as they have two play few big matches in the later half of the CFL. So, the officials have quickly decided to call Afghanistan defender Zohib Islam Amiri who is a utility footballer and can play in the defense as well as midfield. Amiri, 29 had piled his trade in the I-League debuting for Mumbai FC and then moving to Dempo SC  before playing for DSK Shivajians in the last I-League. He had also shown his class in the inaugural edition of the ISL for FC Goa. Apart from piling his trade with several Indian clubs, Amiri had played 55 matches for the Afghanistan National team scoring 5 goals. If Amiri gets the nod from the team management then he will be signed only for the CFL and if he can perform well then the club officials can think of extending his contract till the I-League.
