Dempo Sports Club playmaker Godwin Franco has pledged his
loyalty to the Blues by signing a fresh three-year deal on Thursday.
The close of the season brought an end to Godwin’s
three-year deal that was signed in 2010. The mutual trust between the Guirim-based
midfielder and Dempo has resulted in a new and improvised offer for Godwin.
“I am very happy to be at the club and even they (Dempo)
like me at the club. The club has a very good vision and also a good coach in
Arthur Papas who is looking forward to build a very good team. He is a very
very good coach and Dempo has always been a good team because of the boss Mr. Srinivas
Dempo. The respect that he gives everyone is unbelievable. He makes u feel like
his own family. He has been very supportive and I am very thankful to him,”
Godwin told PSP.
The deal comes amidst interest from different clubs like
Pune FC and Prayag United. It is believed that Godwin was also approached the
last season by current I-League champions Churchill Brothers. “There were
offers from various clubs but I am committed to Dempo. There were offers coming
in throughout these three years but I always felt it right to speak to my club
and respect my contract,” the former Pune FC man stated.
Asked about his club’s performance last season, Godwin preferred
to leave the past behind and look at a positive future. “We should not look into
the past now. We just want to look forward to the new season, give our best and
win everything that is at stake,” said the ambitious player.
