Reigning ISL champions Mumbai City on Friday announced that Sergio Lobera will be stepping down as their head coach after a successful one-year stint with the club.
The club&rsquo;s new head coach will be Englishman Des Buckingham, who joins from sister club and A-League champions Melbourne City. He will join the Islanders ahead of the 2021-22 season on a two-year contract, a media statement issued by the franchise stated.
Buckingham will arrive in the country shortly and will undergo the stipulated quarantine before joining the Mumbai City bubble in Goa to commence pre-season preparations ahead of the 2021-22 campaign.
Lobera joined the club in October 2020 and oversaw the club&rsquo;s most successful campaign ever, when the Islanders became the first team in ISL history to secure both the League Winners&rsquo; Shield and the Trophy.
