Lallianzuala Chhangte pens extension with Mumbai City

In the last ISL, Chhangte set a record, contributing 16 goals (10 goals and 6 assists), becoming the first Indian player in the ISL to achieve over 15 goal contributions in consecutive seasons.

Mumbai City FC are thrilled to announce that Lallianzuala Chhangte, one of the Club’s most decorated players ever, has extended his contract until the end of the 2026-27 season. 

In the last ISL, Chhangte set a record, contributing 16 goals (10 goals and 6 assists), becoming the first Indian player in the ISL to achieve over 15 goal contributions in consecutive seasons.

Besides winning the ISL League Winners’ Shield in 2022-23, Chhangte also played a pivotal role this season, scoring crucial goals in the ISL semi-final and helping Mumbai City FC win the ISL Cup. He won the Golden Ball in the ISL 2022/23 and the Golden Boot in the Durand Cup 2022. His achievements include an 8-game goal-scoring streak in the ISL, the longest for an Indian player, and being only the second Indian after Sunil Chhetri to record a goal contribution against every ISL opponent.

Known as the "Mizo Flash," the 27-year-old was part of the historic 2022 AFC Champions League campaign, where the Islanders became the first Indian club to register wins and finish second in their group. 

Chhangte said, "I had no doubts in my mind about extending my stay with Mumbai City FC for the upcoming seasons. The fans are immense, and so is the family at the club. I am grateful to God that we have been able to repay that love with good football and trophies.

Mumbai City FC coach Petr Kratky commented, “He is a brilliant footballer, and I wish him the very best for the future. I hope he continues to mesmerize the fans in every game."
