Jamshedpur FC’s talented youngster Jerry Mawia put pen to paper as he extended his stay with the Tata Group franchise for another two years. The Mizo-born player impressed the country with his performances, winning the Emerging Player of the Match award multiple times during the Indian Super League (ISL) 2017-18.

On what made him extend his stay with the club…
The support from the people of Jamshedpur, the managing board, the technical staff, the coaching staff and the team was influential for me in making my decision. We built a great family last season. It was an amazing experience both on and off the pitch and I know it is the right decision to continue here.
On his objectives for the coming seasons…
My objective for the coming seasons is to give my utmost best for the club and the supporters. I want to build on last season’s performances and provide positive results.

I’m very thankful to all the fans for their constant love and support. I am what I am because of their unconditional love. I would like to request all to come together and support the team again next season to make our dreams come true.
