Manish Maithani is an Indian football player who played as a central midfielder for Southern Samity and currently coaches a local club in Dehradun DESA FC.
[2] After the 2012–13 season ended, Maithani signed with IMG-Reliance to join their Indian Super League but due to objection from the I-League clubs in which they said they would not sign any players who joined the ISL it meant that Maithani would be without a club for a long period of time.
Then, on 30 October 2013, it was announced that Mohammedan S.C. had broken that barrier when they signed Maithani on loan.
[5] Mathani was loaned out to 2nd division side Vitória de Guimarães B in Portugal from FC Pune City for 5 months.
He has been coaching a promising bunch of talent in his academy with national players like Rishi Upadhyay and Anubhav Rawat who has recently been selected in the Uttrakhand squad for Santosh Trophy 2021.
