Odisha FC Extends Roy Krishna’s Contract Through 2025

Bhubaneswar: Odisha FC is thrilled to announce that Roy Krishna has agreed to a one-year contract extension, ensuring the Fiji international remains with the club until 2025.

Krishna has had an outstanding season in the Indian Super League (ISL), netting 13 goals and providing 3 assists. His performance was particularly pivotal in Odisha FC’s dramatic 3-2 comeback victory against Maziya S & RC in the AFC Cup, where he scored the winning goal in the dying minutes of the match.

Expressing his enthusiasm for the extension, Krishna said, “I’m very pleased to extend my stay at Odisha for another year. I’ve had a great season and can’t wait to see what we can achieve together in the next one. The energy and support I get from our fans on and off the pitch is unparalleled and truly fuels my passion for the game. Playing under Coach Sergio Lobera has been a great experience for me. His vision, leadership, and commitment to excel inspire me every day. I am eager to continue learning and growing under his guidance, and I am confident that together, we will achieve great things this year.”

Head Coach Sergio Lobera shared his excitement about Krishna’s contract extension, stating, “I am happy to have a player and a professional like Roy back next season. He has helped us achieve success last year and I am sure he will help us this year as well.”
