In a strategic move aimed at alleviating immediate financial pressures, Hyderabad FC has chosen to loan out promising left-back Vignesh Dakshinamurthy to Odisha FC until the conclusion of the 2023-24 season. This decision not only provides a breather for the cash-strapped Nizams but also offers Dakshinamurthy an opportunity to enhance his skills and gain crucial playing time.
Having previously signed a four-year deal with Hyderabad FC during the summer, Dakshinamurthy’s loan move comes as a pragmatic measure to navigate the club’s existing financial challenges. The young full-back was part of a player exchange deal that involved Akash Mishra moving to Mumbai City FC. The announcement of his loan to Odisha FC was made via the club’s official social media channels.
For Odisha FC, led by the experienced Sergio Lobera, the acquisition of Dakshinamurthy represents a valuable opportunity to strengthen their defensive lineup. Joining forces with another talented left-back, Jerry Lalrinzuala, Dakshinamurthy adds depth and quality to Odisha FC’s squad. Lobera, having previously worked with Dakshinamurthy during their time at Mumbai City FC, is set to rekindle their partnership at Odisha FC.
While Dakshinamurthy had a relatively slow start at Hyderabad FC, playing less than 300 minutes in six games, the loan move to Odisha FC provides him with a fresh platform to showcase his skills. With both clubs eyeing success in their respective endeavors, this strategic decision offers mutual benefits in terms of financial relief for Hyderabad FC and enhanced defensive capabilities for Odisha FC.
Odisha FC finds itself in Group D alongside FC Goa, Bengaluru FC, and Inter Kashi, and the addition of Dakshinamurthy is expected to play a vital role in their quest to retain the Kalinga Super Cup title at home.
