Hailing from the highly talented north-eastern state of Manipur in India, Dheeraj Singh is one of the brightest prospects in the Indian National Team. Born in 2000, Dheeraj has represented India at the U-17 and U-23 levels, but is yet to make an appearance for the senior team.



Dheeraj Singh was a part of the AIFF Elite Academy batch preparing for the 2017 U-17 FIFA World Cup which was hosted by India. He started his club career with the Indian Arrows, but chose to end it so that he could attend trials at European Clubs like Motherwell F.C. In 2018, he made the switch to Hero ISL club Kerala Blasters FC, but since then has changed clubs multiple times.



Dheeraj made the move to FC Goa in 2021 and it has finally been here, that the young shot-stopper got the chance to show his true potential. During the 2021 AFC Champions League, he showed his class with the best save percentage of any goalkeeper at the tournament (minimum 3 matches played), saving 86.2% of shots on goal.
