ISL Transfers: Rahul KP set to move to Odisha FC
Rahul KP will change his base after a five-year stint with Kerala Blasters in which he made 76 appearances and scored nine goals. He joined the Blasters in 2019.
Rahul KP has signed a multi-year deal with Odisha FC to complete his move from Kerala Blasters, according to media reports.
Rahul, a former AIFF Elite Academy player, will change his base after a five-year stint with Kerala Blasters in which he made 76 appearances and scored nine goals. He joined the Blasters in 2019.
Odisha FC is currently sixth in the Indian Super League (ISL) standings with 20 points from 14 matches following its 2-4 thrashing at the hand of Manolo Marquez's FC Goa team in Bhubaneswar on Saturday.
The Juggernauts are now determined to return to winning ways when they face Chennaiyin FC in an away clash on January 9.
With the January transfer window currently in operation, Odisha FC is determined to bolster its squad to make a late surge in the points table.
For the team’s coach Sergio Lobera, the focus is on strengthening the team's attacking line. Hence, Rahul KP will be a valuable inclusion in the team.
The 24-year-old has already played more than eleven matches in the Blasters’ jersey this season.
This season, he scored one goal, and that came against Chennaiyin FC during the Blasters' 3-0 win in Kochi in November last year.
