Kerala Blasters FC has signed the services of defender Milos Drincic on a one-year deal, the club announced on Monday. The 24-year-old youngster has the experience of playing around 230 matches in the top-tier clubs of Montenegro and Belarus.
“I see this as a wonderful opportunity to explore a new challenge in a different league with a great Club. There was a good feeling from the first moment I started speaking with Karolis. 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,” Milos Drincic said after joining the Indian Super League side.
Drincic kicked off his professional career in Montenegro with FK Iskra Danilovgrad in 2016. The center-back recently played for Shakhter Soligorsk in Belarus in the previous season.
After consistent performances, the youngster moved to Sutjeska Niksic in 2021 and won his first major trophy in the same season. Drincic also won the Championship with the club in the next edition.
He has played in tournaments like UEFA Champions League & Europa Qualifiers, and was part of Montenegro’s U17, U19, and U23 teams.
“Milos Drincic is exactly the profile we were looking for – fighter mentality, peak age, playing in top European league, and great ambition to represent Kerala Blasters. There were no doubts we wanted him. Though it took some time, I’m glad we have Milos with us. I wish him to become an important part of Kerala Blasters going forward,” said Kerala Blasters Sporting Director Karolis Skinkys.
Milos Drincic will don jersey number 15 for Kerala Blasters FC. The Yellow Army also recently signed the services of forward Ishan Pandita ahead of the upcoming season.
Kerala Blasters will next take on Bengaluru FC in the Durand Cup at Kishore Bharati Krirangan, Kolkata on Friday.
