Parthib Gogoi completes paperwork to join NorthEast United FC

Parthib Gogoi has completed his signing for NorthEast United FC. A source close to the development confirmed that he has signed a three-year deal with the club. The club will announce it soon.

Parthib Gogoi started his footballing career at Ozone FC. He later made a move to the Indian Arrows in 2020. He played 28 matches for them, scoring three goals. He is the brother of Pragyan Sundor Gogoi, who also plays for NEUFC.

Parthib was an important member of the Indian U-20 squad in the recently held SAFF Championship. His excellent performance helped hosts India lift the trophy.

Here goes Parthib Gogoi ( No 10 ) scoring on sunday 2 goals for India against Nepal in the U20 SAFF.

Gogoi mainly plays as a right winger. But he can also play as the right midfielder. He is known on the Indian football circuit for his superb speed and dribbling qualities.

Gogoi's excellency at cutting inside from the wing makes him a threat to the opposition defense. He also switches his position very frequently in order to escape his marker. But to reach the height of his potential, he has to develop his passing.
