The 22-year-old joined the Marina Machans on a multi-year deal after a productive 2022-23 season at Bengaluru United, where he scored 36 goals in 34 games.
The Goa-born striker played a crucial role in Bengaluru United’s run in the I-League 2nd Division where he scored 13 goals. He also struck 15 goals to help his side finish runners-up in the BDFA Super Division, Karnataka’s first-tier football division.
Irfan also won the Stafford Challenge Cup with Bengaluru United and emerged as top scorer with eight goals.
“To arrive at a club like Chennaiyin FC is a moment of great pride for me and my family. I am looking forward to meeting my new teammates, the staff and our fans. I would also like to thank the club for giving me this opportunity,” Irfan expressed to the official CFC website after joining the club.
Chennaiyin will be hoping for a better season this time around after a dismal outing last season. The 2017-18 champions failed to qualify for the playoffs and were eliminated from the group stage of the Super Cup as well.
It is to be seen how they integrate Yadwad into their lineup with the likes of Peter Sliskovic and Rahim Ali already in their squad.
