Delhi Dynamos F.C.'s Ghanaian striker Richard Gadze joins Finnish giants HJK Helsinki
New Delhi, Mar 14 (IBNS) Delhi Dynamos FC announced on Monday the Loan Transfer of their joint top-scorer for season 2015 of the Hero Indian Super League, Richard Gadze to the Finnish giants HJK Helinski on a one year deal.
HJK Helinski is a top division club from the capital city of Finland, playing in the Finnish League Veikkausliiga. The club has spent most of its history in the top tier of Finnish football. HJK is the only Finnish club that has participated in the UEFA Champions’ League group stage.
Richard Gadze holds the joint top position of scoring 4 goals for the season 2015 of the HISL for Delhi Dynamos F.C.
Delhi Dynamos F.C. President Prashant Agarwal was quoted on the loan transfer, “It’s a proud moment for an Indian Club that’s been in existence for only two seasons of the HISL to have their player Richard Gadze go out on loan to HJK Helsinki, which is a top tier club from Finland. This is a first for an Indian club, to loan out a player to a club in Europe playing in the Europa League amongst other greats from the Bundesliga, La Liga, Ligue 1, English Premier League and the Serie A. We at Delhi Dynamos F.C. believe in the philosophy of building stars, where not only Legends and Marquees are associated with us but we have now set a new benchmark by creating a bridge where future stars created in India are sent to Europe rather than the other way around.”
This is the second successful loan transfer for a Delhi Dynamos F.C. player post a competitive 2015 HISL Season. In late January 2016, Delhi Dynamos F.C.’s French midfielder Florent Malouda signed with the Egyptian Premier League side WadiDegla S.C., and has been having a fabulous season away.
Delhi Dynamos F.C. became the first Indian club early in 2015 to have Adil Nabi, come on loan from West Bromwich Albion F.C. playing in the English Premier League. To add to the many first time achievements of an Indian Football Club the Delhi Dynamos F.C. President added, “We hope to seek transfers of Indian Players to clubs of similar stature in the near future to put Indian talent on the Global Football footprint. We would also like to continue bringing in talented foreign players from prestigious clubs from across the globe.”
Amongst other transfers, Hansito Mulder the ex-Delhi Dynamos midfielder moved to the Spanish club Cacereno, while the super saver Goal Keeper Toni Doblas moved to another Spanish club CD Toledo earlier this month. The Dynamos marquee defender John Arne Riise completed a full circle in his career by returning to the club where it all started for him, Aalesunds FK in Norway.
