NorthEast United FC is pleased to announce that promising young midfielder Bekey Oram has signed a contract extension, committing his future to the Highlanders until the end of the 2028 season.
Since joining the club ahead of the 2023–24 campaign, Bekey has made 18 appearances across the Indian Super League, Super Cup, and Durand Cup. A versatile performer, he has showcased his ability to operate in both midfield and defence with composure and tactical intelligence.
Bekey played a pivotal role in NorthEast United FC’s triumph in the 40th Sikkim Governor’s Gold Cup, and gained valuable game time in the Reliance Foundation Development League (RFDL) as part of his continued development.
“I’m delighted to extend my stay with the Highlanders. I’m grateful to the coaching staff and the management for the trust they’ve shown in me,” Bekey said.
“These past two years have been instrumental in shaping me both as a player and as a person. The Durand Cup victory and the Sikkim Governor’s Gold Cup win were special moments, and I look forward to continuing to grow and contribute to the club’s success,” he added.
“Bekey is a fantastic and intelligent young player who can comfortably play both in defence and midfield. He reads the game well and makes smart decisions on the pitch. I’m very happy that he’s staying with us and believe he has a bright future ahead,” Juan Pedro Benali, head coach, NorthEast United FC, said.
“Extending Bekey’s contract reflects our continued commitment to nurturing young talent. He was instrumental in our Sikkim Governor’s Gold Cup win and has featured in important ISL fixtures, which speaks volumes of his dedication and growth. We’re excited about his journey ahead with NorthEast United FC,” Mandar Tamhane, CEO, NorthEast United FC, said.
