Ahead of the fourth edition of the Indian Super Leage, FC have roped in Under-19 defensive duo Kishan Singh Thongam and Jayananda Singh Moirangthem.

The two latest signings of the capital based outfit are currently on international duty with team at the ongoing South Asian Football Federation (SAFF) Under-18 Championships taking place in Bhutan and will be joining up with their new club next month.

The 18-year-old Jayananda Singh has had stints with the AIFF Academy and DKS Shivajians. The defender has come through the ranks with the India U-14 and U-16 sides and has skippered both the sides during his time with them.

Kishan Singh is a left-back by trade he will be joining his India counterpart Jayananda at the national capital. Delhi Dynamos Director Rohan Sharma expressed delight at capturing the two talented Indian youngsters.

“I'd like to extend my warmest greetings to Jayananda and Kishan, these two players have a lot of potential and I'm happy they have chosen Delhi Dynamos to be their new club. We hope we can help Jayananda and Kishan grow and develop into the next Indian superstars,” Sharma said.

Delhi Dynamos are being managed by Spanish coach Miguel Angel and had achieved their best-ever finish in the ISL last season when they managed to finish third.
