After joining Goa in 2020, Ferrando guided the Gaurs to the semifinals of the ISL and was also in charge of the club during its maiden continental voyage in the AFC Champions League, where it finished third in Group E.

Goa is currently eighth on the league table after six matches and faces Odisha FC next on Friday. Assistant coach Clifford Miranda will take interim charge of the first team.

This season, FC Goa dipped to eighth in the table, losing its first three games -- to Mumbai City, Jamshedpur FC and NorthEast United FC. The side, under Ferrando, then staged a resurrection of sorts with wins over SCEB and BFC before earning a draw against HFC.

With ATK MB taking on NEUFC on Tuesday, Ferrando is expected to be in attendance in the Mariners' camp.
