Chennaiyin FC announced the eagerly anticipated return of Owen Coyle as its head coach ahead of the 2023-24 season on a multi-year deal on Sunday.
The experienced Scotsman, who has won the Premier League Manager of the Month Award thrice, is quite a popular name in the Indian football circuit and had a successful stint with Chennaiyin last time when he led the club to the final of 2019-20 Hero ISL with eight wins.
“We’re delighted to have Owen back in Chennaiyin colours. Owen is no stranger to India and we’ve all seen what he can do here. He’s the right man to lead our young team forward and we’re glad to have him back home,” Chennaiyin co-owner Vita Dani said.
