ATK Mohun Bagan’s Joni Kauko set to be on sidelines

Joni Kauko, the star midfielder for ATK Mohun Bagan, has been sidelined after sustaining a serious knee injury in their previous game in the Hero Indian Super League (ISL) 2022-23 against FC Goa at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Margao on Sunday.
ATK Mohun Bagan shared the message with the fans and announced Kauko’s time off from the game due to the injury. The official statement from the club said, “Joni Kauko is set for a lengthy spell out of action after sustaining a knee injury. Speedy recovery, Joni.”
The midfielder was brought off the field in the 59th minute against FC Goa as the team lost the match 0-3.
The Finnish international, who has started each game this season for Juan Fernando’s team, has been crucial. He has earned the coach’s faith by putting on outstanding individual displays, scoring twice, and scoring the equaliser in their intense battle against Mumbai City FC.
The sixth-place finish of the Kolkata-based team in the standings might be fatal for Ferrando’s aspirations if Kauko were to be sidelined from action for a long period of time.
In matchweek eight of the ISL 2022-23, ATK Mohun Bagan and Hyderabad FC will square off at Vivekananda Yuba Bharti Krirangan in Kolkata on Saturday.
