Ahead of the upcoming season of the Indian Super League (ISL 2024-25<\/a>), Chennaiyin FC<\/a> have completed the signing of 26-year-old defender Vignesh Dakshinamurthy<\/a> on a four-year deal.<\/p>\n

Primarily a left-back, Vignesh has also played in midfield and adds versatility and experience to the Chennaiyin backline. He becomes the club\u2019s 12th signing of the summer, joining the likes of Mandar Rao Dessai<\/a> and PC Laldinpuia<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Welcoming Vignesh into the club, head coach Owen Coyle said, \u201cDelighted to sign another talented young Indian player who has already shown fantastic ability in the ISL, we faced a lot of competition to sign him from other clubs. Vignesh is a great addition to our squad and we look forward to working with him.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Vignesh began his career with Bengaluru\u2019s Ozone FC, for whom he played for six years, three in the academy and three with the first team. He made his senior debut at 17 and was one of Ozone\u2019s star performers en route to their 2018 I-League 2 Final Round run.<\/p>\n

That same year, Vignesh stepped up to the Indian Super League with Mumbai City FC and went on to represent the Islanders more than 60 times combined across competitions, including four AFC Champions League<\/a> appearances.<\/p>\n

Explosive going forward and efficient tracking back, Vignesh made the left back berth his own while at Mumbai City<\/a> and was part of the team that won two ISL Shields (2021 and 2023) and one ISL Cup<\/a> (2021).<\/p>\n

Ecstatic upon joining the two-time ISL champions, Vignesh said, \u201cFeels like being at home. Really happy and proud to represent the city and Chennaiyin FC. I\u2019m aware of rich culture of the city and the club so I\u2019ll always give my best and be a part of club\u2019s success.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

After spending five years at Mumbai City<\/a>, Vignesh joined Hyderabad FC<\/a> ahead of the 2023-24 season. He played six matches for Hyderabad before joining Odisha FC<\/a> on loan earlier this year in January. He made 17 appearances across all competitions for the Juggernauts.<\/p>\n

Vignesh was also part of the Indian squad that finished runners-up at the 2018 SAFF Championship<\/a>.<\/p>\n
