I would like to thank the management for believing in me and my agent for familiarizing me with the culture around the club. Looking forward to learn more about Kerala and the club. One love, YELLOW ARMY" he added.
Costa Nhamoinesu will join the Kerala Blasters FC squad as an experienced center-back with the most number of appearances at the Sparta Prague as a foreign player and will look to lead the backline and impart his knowledge to the young Indian defenders over the course of the season.
The Harare native is strong in the air and his strength makes him a solid presence inside the box at both ends. (ANI)
