Montenegro defender Miloš Drinčić will now play in the ISL
Kerala Blasters FC have signed 24-year-old Montenegro centre-back Miloš Drinčić on a one-year deal for the upcoming Hero ISL 2023/24 season. Set to don jersey number 15, Drinčić is set to join the Blasters camp in Kolkata.
Only 24, Drinčić has already amassed close to 230 appearances across the top tiers of Montenegro and Belarus. Drincic, who most recently turned out for Shakhter Soligorsk in Belarus, started his professional career in Montenegro with FK Iskra Danilovgrad in 2016.
A string of consistent and dominant performances in the top-division earned him a move to Sutjeska Niksic in 2021. Milos experienced his first silverware that same year as he would go onto becoming a mainstay in the Sutjeska Niksic team that won the championship in 2022.
The young and towering Montenegrin, who has consistently competed in tournaments like UEFA Champions League & Europa Qualifiers, was part of Montenegro’s U17, U19, and U23 teams.
His next assignment looks set to be the Durand Cup, which is being used as a pre-season tournament by the Kerala-based club before the ISL begins.
Miloš Drinčić said: "I see this as a wonderful opportunity to explore a new challenge in a different league with a great club. I am really looking forward to this new chapter of my career, and I hope to make it a memorable one. I assure you I will be giving it my all both on and off the pitch."
