The winners of the 2014 and 2016 editions of the Indian Super League (ISL), ATK, have announced the signings of Irish defender Carl Gerard McHugh other than midfielders Michael Soosairaj and Michael Regin on Tuesday.
McHugh may be deployed in a versatile role given that he can play as a centre back, left back and even in midfield. He last played for and captained Scottish Premiership side Motherwell FC, having previously represented English clubs such as Reading FC, Bradford City and Plymouth Argyle. The 26-year-old has also been part of the U-17, U-19 and U-21 Republic of Ireland national teams.
