EXPERIENCED goalkeeper Misiwani Nairube has officially returned to Ba FC for the new season.

Nairube’s return comes as a major boost for Ba FC after he was absent during the latter half of last season. His presence adds depth, experience and renewed confidence to the squad as they prepare for another demanding campaign.

The bond between Nairube and Ba FC has always been strong, and his homecoming feels like a key piece of the puzzle falling back into place. Known for his composure and leadership at the back, the shot-stopper is expected to play an important role both on and off the field.

Ba FC president Praneel Dayal, head coach Shalen Lal and football director Ravinesh Kumar were all present to welcome Nairube back into the squad, highlighting the club’s strong sense of unity and shared purpose.

President Dayal said Nairube’s return was about more than just football.

“This moment isn’t just about football; it’s about family and the shared vision we have for the future of Ba FC.

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much,” Dayals said.
