Jose Luis Espinosa Arroyo: Spanish centre-back Jose Luis Espinosa Arroyo (Tiri) has signed a contract extension with Mumbai City, keeping him with the Islanders until May 31, 2026. The upcoming season will mark the 33-year-old’s tenth in the Indian Super League, the most for any foreign player.

Tiri initially joined Mumbai City in the 2023–24 season and has since gone on to register 49 appearances for the club. Most recently, he featured in 21 matches during the 2024–25 Indian Super League campaign, contributing to nine clean sheets, 33 interceptions and 84 recoveries, serving as a pillar of the Islanders’ defence.

As a heartfelt tribute, Tiri will now don the name Rubio on the back of his jersey, in memory of his late father, a personal gesture that reflects his values and his emotional bond with the game.
