ISL: Bengaluru FC sign Nili Perdomo, Manuel Onwu joins Odisha on loan

Indian Super League (ISL) defending champions Bengaluru FC have roped in Spanish footballer Francisco Perdomo, who is also known as Nili. The Blues have also agreed to send striker Manuel Onwu on loan to Odisha FC.

Odisha striker Aridane Santana was ruled out for the season due to injury and the Bhubaneswar-based club has acted quickly to bring in a short-term replacement.

Santana had been in fine form in front of goal for Odisha, scoring nine goals and picking up two assists in 14 matches this season. His replacement struggled to get going at Bengaluru and is yet to open his account in ISL.
