Khalid Jamil has been a quality addition to the coaching staff of NorthEast United FC this season…
North East India has been a happy hunting ground for coach Khalid Jamil as the former India international midfielder won his first ever I-League title as a coach with Aizawl FC in the 2016-17 season.
Jamil resigned from his post as Mumbai FC coach after the conclusion of the 2015-16 season, thus breaking a seven-year-old long association with the club.
He moved to Mizoram subsequently and found massive success. Aizawl's triumph under Jamil's tutelage was historic and went down the history books as one of the greatest underdog stories of Indian football.
