Bengaluru FC has signed the services of Prabir Das on a three-year deal ahead of the ninth season of the Hero Indian Super League 2022-23, the club announced on Monday. The Blues have roped in Prabir Das from ATK Mohun Bagan.
Das commenced his football journey with Pailan Arrows (now Indian Arrows). After an impressive start for the Arrows in 2012-13, he made a move to Dempo. Subsequently, he went on to play for FC Goa and Delhi Dynamos on loan in the maiden season of the Hero ISL.
Since 2016, Das has been associated with Kolkata-based club. The 28-year-old is delighted to sign with Blues on a three-year deal.
“I am very happy at having signed for Bengaluru FC because this is a football club that I have admired for a while now. I have played at the Kanteerava and the atmosphere is always high-energy, and I am waiting to experience it while wearing the Bengaluru shirt. I am eager to play a big part in bringing back the success that this club is used to and I am grateful to the owners and management for showing faith in me, and for wanting me to be a part of their ambitions,” said Das, after completing the formalities on his deal.
Before his stint with ATK Mohun Bagan, the defender played for ATK FC. He also played an instrumental role in the team’s second title in the 2019-20 season as he provided five assists, which was the most for any defender in that edition of the tournament. Das has played a total of 39 matches for ATK Mohun Bagan in the last two seasons of the competition.
“Das is a player we had set our sights on for some time now, and we’re happy to have him commit his future to Bengaluru FC. Having a plethora of talent on the left, what the team needed was strengthening on the right. With Prabir and his experience, BFC have found a trusted and able player who makes us stronger. We are confident we can give Prabir the platform to excel and get back to the national team while helping Bengaluru FC achieve its goal of getting back to where we belong – right at the top,” said club Director, Parth Jindal.
Meanwhile, Bengaluru FC finished in sixth place with eight wins in 20 matches with a tally of 29 points in the previous season and thus could not qualify for the semifinal stages.
