Rajasthan United bashes the transfer deadline day in style with the signing of Uzbek attacking Medio Sardor Jakhonov. He last played for the Kyrgyzstan Club FK Kaganat.
“Uzbek attacking midfielder Sardor Jakhonov has completed his move to RUFC and is likely to land in India by end of this week”a source close to Football Express can confirm.
He is the 3rd signing of the club on the deadline day as they already have completed the signing of Mauro Dos Santos and Rickey Shabong. The club also roped in Pedro Manzi, who won the golden boot in I league 2018-19. Sardor will join the club as an Asian quota footballer.
About the Player
Sardor Jakhonov started his football career with Quizilqum Zarafshon in Uzbekistan. After that, he joined the 2nd division side FC Qqtepa. But due to lack of game time there he moved on to the Xorazm Urganch FC side. Last summer he moved to the Kyrgystan club FK Kaganat. He made 12 appearances there scoring 2 goals.
He has great skill with the ball. His dribbling skills will surely help the Rajasthan squad in their attacking movements. Also, his ability to give deadly through passes is surely a threat to the opponents.
