Edu Garcia made his first foray into the Indian waters in the 2017-18 season when he penned the deal with Bengaluru FC. The former Real Zaragoza player bagged 2 goals and 5 assists in the 14 matches he played in the ISL.

Surprisingly, the 27-year-old didn't renew his contract with the current defending champions and went further east to sign with Chinese Second Division club Zhejiang Greentown FC. However, things didn't work out for him there and, it was only a matter of time before Edu Garcia came back to India.

ATK signed him in the winter transfer window to bolster their chances of finishing inside the top 4. While that didn't materialize, Edu Garcia showed the Indian football fans what they were missing by scoring 2 goals and bagging 3 assists in only 6 matches. With Super Cup being the only tournament left for ATK and his contract running out after that, it remains to be seen if he goes to some other uncharted territory or stay back in India with a new club.
