Kerala Blasters, as always, has offered a platform to yet another player to showcase his talents. Jeakson Singh, who rose to fame by scoring India's first-ever goal in a FIFA tournament, against Colombia in the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup has been a key part of the Blasters side this season.

The holding midfielder has helped his backline form a shield before the defense, with 27 tackles. Having completed 234 passes at an accuracy of 85%, he has stepped up for the club in Mario Arques' absence. The 18-year old has successfully distributed the ball around the park and even drops back to the defense when playing with two wingbacks.

As Mario Arques has recovered from injury for Kerala Blasters, Jeakson will be relieved of the hectic load in the midfield. The Spanish player's partnership will only make the young lad step up his game.
