ATK Mohun Bagan sign Australian defender Brendan Hamill

KOLKATA: ATK Mohun Bagan have signed Australian A-League star defender Brendan Hamill ahead of the upcoming Hero Indian Super League (ISL) 2022-23 season, the club announced on Thursday.

The Sydney-born, 29-year-old defender started his career by playing in youth academies and lower division clubs in Australia, and made his professional debut at Melbourne Heart FC (now rebranded as Melbourne City FC) in 2010.

After staying two years at Melbourne City FC, the defender moved to South Korea's top division football K-League 1 side Seongnam FC in 2012. The defender played for two years in K-League 1 but couldn't get the desired results there.

"Hamill is a player who helps in the build-up of the game and who, using his experience, helps the team in difficult defensive moments. He will be an asset to the team," commented ATK Mohun Bagan head coach Juan Ferrando on the new signing. IANS
