Bhubaneswar:: Odia youngster Shubham Sarangi will continue being a part of Odisha FC till 2023. The 19-year-old defender signed the extension of his contract with the Bhubaneswar-based ISL club on Wednesday.
Speaking on the development, Club President Mr. Rohan Sharma said, “Shubham came to this club when he was 17. We loved his talent so he was the first boy we sent to Aspire Academy. He showed maturity in believing in us and waiting on the bench for a chance to shine. This year he showed what a great talent he is. But this is just his first step. I can’t wait for him to grow and develop into the man and player I know he can be. I hope he inspires the kids of Odisha and make them realise that with hard work and patience they can reach their dreams.”
Expressing his delight, Shubham said, “I am very happy that I will be continuing to play for Odisha FC for three more years. I have enjoyed a lot while playing in front of the home crowd at the Kalinga Stadium and will look forward to the same in my upcoming days with OFC.”
