I-League runner-up East Bengal on Wednesday announced the extension of key midfielder Lalrindika Ralte's contract by two seasons.
Popularly known as Dika, the 26-year-old Mizoram footballer has been a vital cog in East Bengal midfield. He had two assists in the I-League as the red-and-gold finished one-point behind Chennai City FC to settle for the second spot.
After signing the contract extension, Dika said he is “delighted to play under the able coaching and guidance of coach Alejandro Menendez“ and expressed his happiness in continuing with the team.
“I’m looking forward to a stellar season ahead,” he said.
