SC East Bengal head coach Mario Rivera heaped praise on the youngster and lauded his defensive skills.

“Naocha is a strong defender with impressive qualities, and we are very happy to have him with us SC East Bengal. At a very young age, he has tasted success and also knows what it means to play big clubs in India.”

Meanwhile, Singh didn’t play any matches for Mumbai City FC and he will be looking forward to making his Hero ISL debut for SC East Bengal.
