Chennai, Apr 22 (UNI) Chennaiyin FC today announced that
versatile Tamil Nadu footballer Edwin Sydney Vanspaul has
committed his future to the club after signing a new multi-year
contract.
Edwin joined the Marina Machans ahead of the 2019-20
Indian Super League campaign and in his debut season,
played a starring role in defence and in midfield.
His partnership with the likes of Anirudh Thapa and
Rafael Crivellaro was instrumental in CFC's stunning
run to the final.
Despite being limited to a bit-part role in the just
concluded 2020-21 season, Edwin was a dependable force
whenever called upon, happy to showcase the full range
of his versatility and slot in where the team required
him to, even notching two assists in 14 outings, albeit
most of them from the bench.
With a total of 34 CFC appearances to his name so far,
Edwin will be raring to go in the new season, hopefully
back performing in front of the ardent Chennaiyin
supporters.
“I am really thankful to everyone at Chennaiyin FC for
showing that belief and faith in me, that they have
retained me for the future,” said the Neyveli-born
former I-League winner with Chennai City FC.
