TP Rehnesh (North East United FC)
This Kerala-born goal keeper is another one of those players, whom people rarely knew of, before the start of the ISL. This young goalkeeper made greek legend Alexandra Tzovas sit on the bench during the inaugural edition. Rehnesh has been the Highlanders' go-to man during times of despair.
Rehnesh was selected by NEUFC during the inaugural ISL, and has been with them through thick and thin. He was the first player to be retained by NEUFC for this season’s ISL and fans just love the fact that their favourite Indian player is coming back again to play for the Highlanders.
The NEUFC custodian's performance has earned him a spot in the Indian U23 team, and also got him a national team camp call up.
