Top 10 Indian goalkeepers of 2016

#5 TP Rehenesh (Readers’ Ranking – 6th)

Average Score – 5.5

Rehenesh moved to East Bengal at the beginning of the year, but he couldn’t nail down a spot in the side. But in the eight games that he did play for the Kolkata side, he conceded only one goal per game. But the biggest personal disappointment for him would have probably been in the ISL.

Subrata Paul started 13 of the 14 games that NorthEast played, going off at half-time in the 13th. That meant Rehenesh played only 135 minutes of football through the season. But the experience that he would have gained would have been invaluable.

He is only 23 years old, and to be under the wings of someone as experienced as Subrata Paul would have only done him a lot of good.

There is a lot more to come from Rehenesh and there is no doubt that the man from Kerala is extremely talented. But 2017 has got to be a huge year on all fronts for Rehenesh – the year when he makes the step up from a promising youngster to a reliable goalkeeper.
