Manuel Onwu – Odisha FC’s style suits me better

Odisha FC succumbed to a 3-1 defeat to ATK on Saturday in what was their third straight defeat of the 2019-20 Indian Super League (ISL) season.

Josep Gombau chose to rope in Manuel Onwu from Bengaluru FC on loan until the end of the season after striker Aridane Santana suffered an injury which ruled him out for the rest of the campaign.

Onwu didn’t have the best of times at Bengaluru FC where he failed to score even once despite 371 minutes of football. Odisha’s decision to sign the former Lorca striker was hard to digest given his struggling form in the league.
