Done Deal :Ranti Martins Commits Future To East Bengal With Two - Year Contract
Published: May 02, 2014
Three - time Indian champions East Bengal have completed the signing of prolific Nigerian forward Ranti Martins from United SC.
The 27 - year - old has committed his future to the Kolkata based side for the next two seasons, that is until the summer of 2016.
Ranti Martins, one of the highest earners in the I - League, has said that he departed United SC due to the dwindling margins the club were experiencing.
Speaking to allnigeriasoccer.com, Martins said :“I can confirm I have signed a two - year contract with East Bengal. I left United SC because they were in financial crisis.
“The Nigerians that played for East Bengal last season (Uga Opara and Chidi Edeh) did not contribute in my choice to join this team. They wanted me so badly and that’s why I signed.
“All the top teams in India wanted me but my target now is to win trophies at East Bengal.”
He has spent the last decade in India defending the colors of Dempo, United SC and Rangdajied United.
