Mohammedan Sporting Club has bolstered its attack with the signing of Australian forward Marc Andre Schmerbock. This marks the 30-year-old’s debut in Indian football, as he joins the club for their ongoing ISL campaign.

Schmerbock last played in Spain’s Primera Federacion (2024-25 season), where he made 14 appearances, including four starts, but failed to find the net. Before that, he featured in the 2021-22 Austrian Bundesliga, playing 12 matches and scoring one goal.

With Mohammedan SC looking to strengthen their squad, the club might introduce Schmerböck in the upcoming derby, giving him an opportunity to make an immediate impact.

Meanwhile, Mohammedan Sporting Club (MSC) head coach Andrey Chernyshov has decided to stay on after initially announcing his resignation. His reversal follows discussions with the club’s primary investors, Shrachi Sports and BunkerHill, with BunkerHill’s Dipak Singh playing a key role in persuading him to continue. Chernyshov has been instrumental in MSC’s ISL campaign, and the club values his leadership as they strive for greater success.

Meanwhile, progress has been made on issuing shares to investors, with a preliminary agreement in place and legal teams working to finalize the process. The resolution of this matter is expected to facilitate the clearance of outstanding dues for players and staff.
