Indian Super League franchise Mumbai City FC yesterday introduced former Portuguese central defender Jorge Costa as their head coach ahead of the upcoming season. Costa, 46, will take over from the Costa Rican Alexandre Guimaraes, who ended his stint with the club after two seasons in charge. Mumbai City finished seventh last season.

The Portuguese, who earned 50 international caps, will bring a surfeit of experience, having been at the helm of clubs in Europe such as Portuguese clubs SC Braga Paos, Ferreira, Romania's CFR Cluj, Greek sides AEL Limassol and Anorthosis Famagusta and the Gabon national team.
