Naorem Mahesh Singh in advanced talks with East Bengal


Naorem Mahesh Singh is close to joining East Bengal for the upcoming season. The 20 year old Manipuri forward is close to signing for Indian giants East Bengal on a 3 year deal with an option for 2 more years. East Bengal manager Alejandro Mendendez identified Naorem as a long term signing to replace Joby Justin, and the deal barring extraordinary circumstances will be completed soon.




Naorem Mahesh Singh started his career with Birchandra Memorial Sporting Club in his home state before joining the Shillong Lajong youth academy. After a season of playing in the Shillong premier League, he was promoted to the senior squad at the start of the 2018-19 I-League season. He played in all 20 games and scored 4 goals, which isn't deplorable considering the fact that Shillong were relegated to the second tier. Under Alejandro, he will only continue to grow and maybe even surpass the level of Joby Justin.
