Iranian gholamreza mazandarani

Pro Kabaddi League: After three consecutive seasons of league-stage exits, former champions of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL), U Mumba will be eager to reclaim their lost glory in Season 11. The Mumbai team won the PKL title in Season 2 but have failed to lift the coveted trophy since. Season 11 will see U Mumba continue with Iranian Gholamreza Mazandarani as their head coach. An experienced coach who has tasted success, Mazandarani has led the Iranian kabaddi team to gold at the 2018 Asian Games and previously coached U Mumba in Seasons 6 and 10.

U Mumba were busy at the Season 11 Player Auction, looking to revamp their squad following successive underwhelming campaigns. They invested in both defence and attack to strengthen the attack and defense for the upcoming season. The Mumboys' defence will undoubtedly be one of their biggest strengths in Season 11 of PKL. Sunil Kumar, eighth on the leaderboard for most tackle points (336) in PKL history, will lead their defence after U Mumba spent an impressive INR 1.015 crore on him at the Player Auction.

U Mumba’s defence is packed with proven talents who have showcased their defensive prowess in the past. In addition to Sunil Kumar, the defence boasts players like Parvesh Bhainswal, Rinku, Gokulakannan M, Bittu, and Sombir, highlighting their defensive depth.
