Former Albion duo Andrea Orlandi and Inigo Calderon are back together - this time in India.
Orlandi has teamed up again with Calderon by joining Indian Super League champions Chennaiyin.
The 34-year-old ex-Seagulls midfielder has signed a one-year deal with the club Calderon helped to the title last season under the guidance of another former Albion player, John Gregory, as head coach.
Orlandi and Calderon reached the Championship play-offs in successive seasons with Albion between 2012 and 2014.
Spanish-born Italian national Orlandi has played for Blackpool and in Cyprus and Italy since leaving the south coast.
He told Chennaiyin's website: "I am really excited to come to India and play for the champions. I am close friends with Calde and as a result I did watch quite a bit of Chennaiyin last season. "What Calde said about the bond in the dressing room and the positive atmosphere surrounding the entire club helped me make the decision to move.
"I've also had a good chat with John and I am looking forward to giving 100 per cent in helping the team retain the ISL title."
Gregory said: "In Andrea, we have a top-class professional with not just tremendous work ethic but also a vibrant personality. I know him very well from his playing career in England. An addition like him gives our squad more depth and creativity as we look to defend the title."
One of Gregory's rival coaches in India is former Albion boss Steve Coppell (above), who has moved from Jamshedpur to ATK in place of Robbie Keane.
