I’ve won a lot in Australia, and I’m looking forward to contributing to an already successful group of staff and players,” said Maclaren to MBSG media team.

Maclaren is regarded as one of the best Austalian strikers in the game and was a regular part of the national team with his latest appearance coming in the 2026 FIFA WC Qualifiers.

I’m here to be part of an already successful squad and club. My goal is to help achieve even more success and continue the story of being the best football club in India."

Macalren's addition to the squad makes him the fourth Aussie player in the Mohun Bagan squad further bolstering the chemistry of the team. The striker will be registered outside the salary cap alongside Apuia and is reported to have been offered a deal which would make him one of the highest paid players in the league.
