Jamshedpur FC

Jamshedpur FC completed the signing of French-born Guinea-Bissau player Steve Ambri, and the 26-year-old forward shared his thoughts with the club's media team after his first full training session. In an exclusive interview, Ambri expressed his excitement and expectations for his time with the club.

On joining Jamshedpur FC…

I'm absolutely thrilled to be a part of this club, and I must say, the warm welcome I've received from my teammates and the staff has been truly heartwarming. It's clear that there's a strong sense of camaraderie here, and that's made my decision to join this club even more fulfilling.

This marks my first experience in Indian football, and I am thrilled to join Jamshedpur. Playing under the guidance of Scott is exciting, as our playing styles are harmonious. I am eager to contribute by scoring goals for both, the club and the passionate fans.

I was told a lot about the club, and after various conversations including some with Jeremy (Manzorro), I immediately agreed to come here. I have heard about the rich cultural heritage of Jamshedpur and the fervent support at The Furnace. I look forward to embarking on this new chapter with the Men of Steel.

On acclimatizing to Jamshedpur…

I have had a couple of intense training sessions with the squad already and I feel good. I have to adapt to the climate, but little by little, it will get better. I have about two weeks before we play the next league game, so I will utilize this time to my and the team’s advantage.

On what he looks forward to the most here…

I aim to give my best in every match to help the team and try to score lots of goals. Also, of course, I am looking forward to seeing the loud fans at The Furnace who will be there to support us. They are the key to help us win matches. I can't wait to meet you all at the stadium, Red Miners. See you soon.

Ambri will don jersey no. 39 and has already joined the squad for training with the next match scheduled after the international break on October 22 vs Punjab FC at The Furnace.
