3) CK Vineeth (East Bengal)
At one point, CK Vineeth was the fastest player in the ISL. His electric speed and knack of finding the back of the net made him somewhat of a fan-favorite.
However, with injuries and having dropped a few yards of pace courtesy of age, Vineeth is clearly not the player that he once was.
Despite not having the best of outings for Chennaiyin and Jamshedpur FC, all eyes will be on the 32-year old winger as he dons the East Bengal shirt for the upcoming season.
Should he manage to stay injury free, Vineeth could very well be a player who ensures a good table finish for East Bengal in their first ever season in the ISL.
4) Nishu Kumar (Kerala Blasters)
Nishu Kumar spells consistency at left-back. At the tender age of 18, Nishu became a regular for Bengaluru FC and has since become an important part of the national set up as well.
Following a fairly lengthy spell with the Blues, Nishu will now suit up for the Kerala Blasters this ISL season. With the Blasters having lost out on Sandesh Jhingan, the 22-year-old becomes a rather important part of the outfit.
Having signed a four-year deal with the club, Nishu has now become the highest paid defender in the ISL, surpassing Jhingan himself. His abilities on the ball coupled with his paycheck make him a player to watch out for.
5) Pronay Halder (ATK Mohun Bagan)
While Pronay Halder may not exactly be the most talented of the lot, his industrious nature on the playing field is something that demands excellence.
Under Steve Coppell, Halder had become the first choice in midfield which helped the 27-year-old cement a first-team place in the national side as well.
In most of the teams he plays, Halder is the quintessential midfield lynchpin. His tremendous work rate and ability to show up in big games will be counted upon this upcoming ISL season.
