In the 2025-26 season, Mohun Bagan has assembled a more competitive team compared to the last season. In this article, we will discuss the Mohun Bagan first-team squad for this season.
Table of Contents
Outgoing foreign players:
- Greg Stewart
Among the foreign players, Greg Stewart played exceptionally in the previous season. His contract has now concluded, and it is known that he is keen on making a return to Scotland, which means Mohun Bagan will not be benefiting from such an exceptional player this year.
Retained foreign players:
While Greg Stewart is no longer part of Mohun Bagan this season, the other five foreign players from last season remain with the team. These players are:
- Tom Aldred,
- Alberto Rodríguez,
- Dimitri Petratos,
- Jamie Maclaren, and
- Jason Cummings
Incoming foreign players:
- Robson Robinho (Potentially)
Robson Robinho will likely join as the sixth foreign player. It is anticipated that Brazilian footballer Robson Robinho will be joining the team to fill the void left by Greg Stewart, although there has yet to be any official confirmation. He is also a talented player, and there are hopes that he will provide the same exciting contributions as Greg Stewart. Additionally, there may be two more foreign players added to the team for the upcoming AFC Champions League Two competition.
Outgoing domestic players:
Now, let’s discuss the domestic players. First, we would mention the players who were in the Mohun Bagan team last season but will not be in the team this season.
- Arsh Anwer Shaikh (Goalkeeper)
Arsh Anwer Shaikh has signed with Kerala Blasters FC this year. - Ashique Kuruniyan (Winger/side back)
Ashique Kuruniyan joined Bengaluru FC this year. - Dheeraj Singh (Goalkeeper) (Potentially),
Dheeraj Singh served as the team’s second goalkeeper last season. It is known that his contract extension has not been done yet this season.
This leaves uncertainty around who will be Mohun Bagan’s second or third goalkeeper this season. Syed Zahid Hussain Bukhari could be considered for that role, or the team might bring in a new goalkeeper or promote someone from the reserve squad.
Incoming domestic players:
Some domestic players have been added to the team. These include:
- Kiyan Nassiri (Winger). Kiyan Nassiri has rejoined the team after spending a year with Chennaiyin FC.
- Abhishek Singh (Left-back). Abhishek Singh has joined the team from Punjab FC this year.
- Mehtab Singh (Center-back) (Potentially). Mehtab Singh could potentially join the squad from Mumbai City FC, but there is currently no confirmed information about this.
Let’s take a look at the complete squad of Mohun Bagan’s first-team this season.
