This is a very noteworthy milestone and speaks volumes about the great association between the two parties.
Edu Bedia has so far netted 3 goals in ISL 2022-23 and will have his task cut out as the race for the playoffs gets heated up. Overall, the Spanish talented midfielder has netted 13 goals in the top-tier football league of India.
