Gokulam Kerala sign Ngangom Ronald Singh from NEROCA FC

The 23-year-old is a versatile winger and has also scored thrice for his former side in the league.

Gokulam Kerala FC have signed 23-year-old forward Ngangom Ronald Singh from NEROCA FC for the I-League season 2020-21.

Ronald Singh started his career with NEROCA FC and has played for the Manipur team in 17 matches in the I-League. His I-League debut was in the 2017-18 season against Gokulam Kerala FC at Kozhikode, in which he scored a goal.

He has since impressed with his pace and dribbles in the I-League. The forward has also scored three goals so far for NEROCA FC in the I-League. The player can also play on both wings.

“I am happy to be part of the Malabarians plan next season. It is an honour for me to play in front of the fans in Kozhikode. I wish to score more goals and make the team lift I League title next season,” said the player.

“We have been scouting Ronald Singh for the past two seasons and he suits our philosophy of play. He is an emerging player and we believe that he could play a major role in our next I League season. The player will add more quality to our attack,” said Gokulam Gopalan, the chairman of Gokulam Kerala FC.

Earlier, Khel Now had reported that the Malabarians are set to sign TRAU FC goalkeeper Shayan Roy and former Manang Marshyangdi defender Muhammad Asif ahead of the next season. The team was considered as a serious title contender before the start of the previous I-League season. Unfortunately, they weren't able to replicate their performances from the pre-season competitions. Now with the new signings, it remains to be seen if Gokulam Kerala can challenge for the title next season.
