MUMBAI: As a part of the preparations ahead of their maiden AFC Champions League campaign, Mumbai City FC will travel to Abu Dhabi, UAE for a two-week training camp.
Mumbai City FC will set up base in Al Forsan where the first team squad will prepare before the Islanders head to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for the Group Stage of the 2022 AFC Champions League which is scheduled to begin from April 8, 2022.
Before being crowned the ISL Champions in the 2020/21 season, the Islanders also finished top of the table and lifted the League Winners’ Shield, thus becoming only the second Indian club to secure participation in Asia’s biggest club football competition.
Drawn in Group B in the West Region of the 2022 AFC Champions League, Mumbai City FC will square off against the likes of Al Jazira (UAE), Al Shabab (Saudi Arabia), and Air Force Club (Iraq).
