Cesar Ferrando Jimenez will take charge of Jamshedpur FC as their head coach for the upcoming 2018/19 Indian Super League season.

The club parted ways with former Manchester United midfielder Steve Coppell a couple of months ago and have now appointed Ferrando instead.

Jamshedpur finished fifth in their maiden ISL campaign last season before being knocked out in the quarter-finals of the Super Cup.

The Tata Steel-owned franchise however will be hoping to build on those results under Ferrando who has coached several Spanish clubs, including La Liga giants Atletico Madrid.

He was in charge of the capital-based outfit in the 2003-04 season when they reached the semi-finals of the Copa Del Rey.
