After spending three seasons at the Kolkata-based club, the footballer has penned a down a three-year deal with fellow ISL club Jamshedpur FC. The winger kick-started his football career in 2011, when he joined the Namchi Sports Academy in his home state, following which qualified for the AIFF Elite Academy after a successful trial. Subsequently, Thatal was inducted into the U17 India team that was preparing for the World Cup.
“I am glad to take up the challenge of fighting for honours with Jamshedpur FC. It’s an amazing club with a lot of commitment towards football development. I know this is the step in the right direction for me. Under gaffer Owen Coyle’s guidance, I am looking to fight for success that the club and the fans crave so dearly,” said Komal Thatal, after signing over the dotted line.
