Sandesh Jhingan, India's defensive stalwart, joined FC Goa on a three-year contract, the Indian Super League (ISL) club announced on Tuesday. The 29-year-old will be the third Indian international to join FC Goa this summer, following the arrivals of Rowllin Borges and Udanta Singh.

Jhingan has been a part of the starting XI ever since his debut in a 2-0 win over Nepal in the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers in 2015.
