The Dubai based conglomerate NRI Rajen Kalichand has decided to launch a new football club in Mumbai and in style.

Likes of Surkumar Singh, N P Pradeep, Paresh Shivalkar, Kali Alauddin, Thoi Singh, Sandeep Nandy are under its radar. Only Surkumar and Sandeep Nandy are yet to sign but Surkumar is more or less finalised. Sandeep has offer from Churchill too.
The club is going to be under professional set up outrightly. Their management team is as follows:
