The Story in Brief
Mohun Bagan Super Giant have confirmed the departure of Australian striker Jason Cummings after three seasons. The 31-year-old posted a farewell on Instagram, calling the fans the 'most craziest and most passionate' he had ever seen. He leaves with five trophies: two ISL shields (2023-24, 2024-25), one ISL Cup (2024-25), the Durand Cup (2024) and the IFA Shield (2025), as per Sportstar.
Cummings scored a penalty in the 2024-25 ISL Cup final against Bengaluru FC. He joined from Central Coast Mariners in 2023, making 88 appearances and scoring 33 goals with 12 assists. The club bid farewell in a social media video captioned: 'Thanks for making every day a little more fun, Jason.'
The Indian Opinion
The narrative around foreign stars in ISL often swings between hero worship and cynicism. Cummings delivered five trophies in three seasons, that is a fact, not hype. But the league is littered with big-name arrivals who fizzled out. The real test for Mohun Bagan is whether their next signing can match his consistency and trophy count, or if the club's system made the player.
