"First of all I would like to thank the Chennaiyin family for believing in me. I feel proud to be part of one of the most successful teams in the country," Reagan was quoted saying in a media release on Friday.
"I believe I contributed well and improved as a player in my first season. My ambition now is to help the club lift their third ISL trophy, and the first of my career," he added.

The 30-year-old is known for his composure in defence and proved to be a great asset for Chennaiyin FC in their campaign last season.

Moreover, he also made one assist while coming close to scoring on quite a few occasions.
