“l am glad to continue my football journey with Kerala Blasters FC and come back in the Indian Super league after learning so much in Europe. Football is more than a passion to me. It’s a dream that I’m living on a day-to-day basis, the one dream I’m working hard to make it as memorable and joyful as possible and reach the highest levels possible. I can’t wait to start training with the team and play in front of the Yellow Army”, said Sanjeev Stalin.

Sporting Director Karolis Skinkys added that they are happy to rope in an exciting talent like Stalin and his experience of playing in Portugal will give him confidence to do well in the ISL.

“I’m happy to have a talented player like Sanjeev Stalin join Kerala Blasters FC. He is a young player who has the ability to make an impact in our squad.  The experience he’s gained from playing 2 years in Portugal means he’ll be more mature and ready to play to the top level. I wish him all the very best and will extend my full support in his development.”, said Karolis Skinkys, Sporting Director, Kerala Blasters FC.

Meanwhile, Kerala Blasters didn’t had a great season as they could only win three matches out of the 20 league stage games and thus finished at the 10th place. Thus, Kibu Vicuna’s team look to come up with a better performance in the eighth season of the league.
