Jamshedpur FC's preparations for the upcoming season

The Men of Steel had a not-so-good 2022-23 season under the tutelage of Aidy Boothroyd. As a result, the club is ready to bring in Scott Cooper as their new tactician, as revealed by Khel Now earlier. Someone, who is adept in working with youngsters, Jamshedpur FC will be blessed to have someone like Cooper.

Speaking of players, Jamshedpur FC have signed Imran Khan (revealed by Khel Now in April) to strengthen their midfield. Also, as per reports, Chennaiyin FC forward Petar Sliskovic will be making his way to the Jamshedpur FC side as well.

The club ended 10th in the ISL last time and lost to Bengaluru FC in the Hero Super Cup semi-finals. This time, under the mentorship of Cooper, Jamshedpur will set their eyes on the trophy once again.
