There entire squad is developmental squad, Most of your NE players in ISL which you and your company now claim to be isl products came from Shillong Lajong
Yoell Van Nieff have a contract till May 2025. They will not release him and more over he is a defensive midfielder.
Definitely, Abdenasser El khayati is a great player, but we cannot compare attacking player with a player who plays more in a defensive role.
I'm guessing, Mumbai City mainly signed Abdenasser El khayati for AFC Champions League as the teams can field 6 foreign players in Starting XI and can register upto 35 players. Maybe after champions league, they will loan-out either El khayati/Yoell Van Nieff to some Indian/foreign club.
What ever.. El khayti is a player who can single handedly turns match results.... Sony norde/ odafa okolie type foreigner.. The kind of player indian clubs needed.
