Kochi: With the upcoming season of the Indian Super League (ISL) approaching, Kerala Blasters FC fans are eagerly speculating about who will take on the crucial role of guarding the net for their beloved team. Among the contenders, two star goalkeepers have caught the attention of fans: Sachin Suresh and Lara Sharma.
Malayalam player Sachin Suresh is one of the key goalkeepers in the Blasters’ line-up, bringing his talent and skills to the team. However, the recent buzz surrounds the arrival of Lara Sharma, who is set to join Kerala Blasters on loan from Bengaluru FC. Although there are no official confirmations yet regarding Lara’s signing, the prospect of having the 6-foot-3-inch Bengali goalkeeper in the team has sparked excitement among the fans.
The decision regarding Lara Sharma’s inclusion in the Blasters’ squad was made after head coach Ivan Vukomanovic and Sporting Director Karolis Skinkis, who were in Europe, returned to Kochi and assessed the team’s needs. Lara’s name emerged as one of the potential options, especially after the departure of Prabhsukhan Singh Gill, who had been the number one goalkeeper for the team in previous seasons but moved to East Bengal.
Prabhsukhan Singh Gill’s departure left a void in the goalkeeping department, and the club’s management is keen to find a suitable replacement who can effectively man the goalposts. Lara Sharma’s track record and potential as India’s future goalkeeper make him an intriguing prospect for the Kerala Blasters.
Lara Sharma’s journey in football began at the Tata Football Academy, and he made his way to Bengaluru FC in 2020. His impressive performances and growth in the sport have earned him recognition as a promising talent in Indian football. With his towering height and goalkeeping prowess, Lara Sharma could prove to be a valuable asset to the team.
