Pune, August 30, 2017: The Rajesh Wadhawan Group owned Indian Super League (ISL) club FC Pune City today announced the signing of defender Damir Grgic to toughen their squad’s defence line. The Croatian will make his debut in the Indian Super League with FC Pune City in the 2017-18 season.
After acquiring his signature, FC Pune City CEO Gaurav Modwel said, “Damir comes to us on back of a very good season in Slovenia. He is strong and powerful and will offer a towering presence at the back. He is comfortable passing and tackling with both feet and will complement Rafa perfectly. ”
