ISL: Chennaiyin FC hand contract extension to John Gregory

Chennaiyin FC have announced that Englishman John Gregory is set to continue as their manager for a third year running.

The former Aston Villa head coach will now lead the South Indian outfit in the 2019-20 Indian Super League (ISL) season.

Gregory joined Chennaiyin FC in 2018 and had phenomenal first season, leading the club to its second ISL title after outwitting Bengaluru FC in the final. Gregory's measured and calculative approach turned out to be a gamechanger for the Marina Machans as they developed a reputation as a tough and organised outfit.
