A familiar face at the Eagles, this will be Uttam’s second stint with the Club, having played for them during the early part of his career, back in 2014. Having played for the likes of Mohun Bagan, Chennaiyin FC and Churchill Brothers, the former India Under-19 team striker will re-join the Eagles, as a much more finished product, having amassed experience in the Indian Super League, I-League, and the Youth National Team.
Speaking on his arrival at Dempo Sports Club, Uttam Rai said, “I’m very happy and excited to be joining Dempo SC. It’s a club that has a lot of history and is one of the most professional clubs in India. I’m ready to give my best for the club and will try my level best to make them champions of Goa.”
The Forward has opted to wear the number 24.
