The boy from Meghalaya will look to get back to his best in the I-League, a tournament where he first shot to prominence during the 2018-19 campaign – where he finished as the second-highest Indian goalscorer thanks to his six strikes in 20 matches.
The youngster had made only one appearance for the Gaurs last season, coming on as a substitute for FC Goa in their last Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League game against Al Wahda.
Speaking on the move, head coach Juan Ferrando told FC Goa Media, “Phrangki is a very professional boy. It has been a pleasure for me and the coaching staff to work with him. He’s supremely talented and with the move, I hope he gets to play a lot of minutes and come back to FC Goa soon with a wealth of experience under his belt because for him, I believe the best is yet to come. All the best Phrangki.”
ISL Transfer Watch: FC Goa sign Nongdomba Naorem
The Gaurs, who had created history by becoming the first Indian club to compete in the AFC Champions League by virtue of topping the ISL the previous year, have been very busy in the transfer market as they made many pre-season signings including Spanish striker Airam Cabrera and Kunal Kundaikar.
Recently they roped in 21-year-old winger Nongdomba Naorem on a free transfer from ISL rivals Kerala Blasters.
Hailing from Wabagai in Manipur, Naorem had come through the ranks at the Minerva Punjab Academy. He had shot to fame first with some eye-catching performances for the Indian national football team at the FIFA Under-17 World Cup held at home in 2017.
