The 2024–25 season will be the eleventh season in Kerala Blasters FC's existence, as well as their eleventh season in the Indian Super League. [1]

Following the conclusion of the 2023–24 season, the Blasters started preparations for the new season right-away as just one week after their elimination from the 2023–24 league playoffs, the Blasters announced the departure of their head coach Ivan Vukomanović, who left the club as the most successful head coach in the history of the club, after his three years at the club. [2] Vukomanović was replaced by the Swedish manager Mikael Stahre, who joined the club on a two-year contract in May 2024.

[4] In the following days, the club would announce the departures of more of their foreign players from the previous season as the likes of Daisuke Sakai, Marko Lešković (who signed in the 2021–22 campaign), and Fedor Černych were released from the club following the end of their contracts. [5] Amidst their Thailand tour ahead of the new season, the club's then longest-serving player at that time, Jeakson Singh was sold to East Bengal for a reported transfer fee of ₹3.2 crores (US$382,300) plus add-ons, [6] with the Blasters receiving the highest transfer fee ever for an Indian player in the nation's football history.

Background

After a rather disappointing 2023–24 season, the Kerala Blasters' quest for their first ever silverware led them to 2024–25 season. [9] The Blasters' 2023–24 season was marked by a roller-coaster journey consisting of injuries and suspensions. [10] Ahead the 2023–24 campaign, the Blasters ended their six-year association with their then-most-capped player at the time, Sahal Abdul Samad, who was involved in a swap-deal with Mohun Bagan Super Giant for the transfer of Pritam Kotal; with the Blasters receiving a reported transfer fee of ₹90 lakhs (US$108,000). [11] The club went to the United Arab Emirates for their final pre-season camp ahead of the league season. [12] The Blasters began their 2023–24 season with the 2023 Durand Cup, in which they were knocked-out of the tournament after finishing third in the group of four. [13] Following the end of his ten-match ban, the then manager of the Blasters, Ivan Vukomanović, returned to the dugout on 27 October 2023 in the match against Odisha FC. [14] The Blasters had a satisfactory end to the first half of the league, as by the winter-breaks in December, the Blasters reigned at the top of the table, spending 45 days at the spot. [15] During the international breaks in January 2024, the Blasters took part in the 2024 Indian Super Cup, but was disqualified from the tournament for yet again finishing third in the group table. [16] [17] Coming into the second-phase of the league, an injury plagued Blasters' side coupled with dozens of suspensions, lost their winning momentum, as they ended the regular season fifth on the table. [18] However, the Blasters qualified for the league playoffs for a third consecutive time, meeting Odisha FC in Kalinga Stadium on 19 April 2024, who put an end to the Blasters' season, as the Blasters lost the match two goals to one, thus ending a yet another season without a trophy. [19]

Pre-season overview

2024

April

On 26 April 2024, the Blasters announced that they had mutually parted ways with their head coach Ivan Vukomanović, after his three season at the club. [20] Vukomanović left the club as the most capped and successful head coach in the history of the club with a win percentage of 44.8% across the league, [21] surpassing his predecessors at the club. He also held the club record for the highest points-per-game ratio (1.58) in the league, [22] as well as was the first Blasters' head coach to take the side to three consecutive playoffs, and left the team as the only Blasters manager to have a positive goal-difference during his tenure at the club. [23]

On 30 April, it was reported by the Times of India reporter Marcus Mergulhao, a prominent sports journalist in India, that the Blasters had signed the Moroccan winger Noah Sadaoui from FC Goa on a two-year deal till 2026. [24] [25]

May

On 6 May, it was reported by Marcus Mergulhao that the Blasters had imposed a fine of Indian rupees 1 crore (US$120,000) to their then head coach Ivan Vukomanović following the infamous walk-out incident in the 2022–23 season league playoffs. [26] Although not being formally announced by the club, the figure was disclosed in the Blasters' appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport against the All India Football Federation on various charges. [27]

On 12 May, it was reported by Marcus Mergulhao that the Blasters had signed the Indian goalkeeper Nora Fernandes from Aizawl FC on a multi-year deal till 2027.

[29]

On 16 May, the AIFF announced that the Blasters (along with three other clubs in the league) had failed to secure the ICLS Premier 1 club licensing for the 2024–25 season. [30] As per the reports, the Blasters were denied the club licensing due to the safety concerns raised by the AFC General Secretary, Windsor John, over the Blasters' home ground Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Kochi. [31] The clubs, who were denied the Premier 1 club licensing were given with an option to seek an exemption to participate in the national competitions by 22 May 2024 by the national federation. [32]

On 18 May, the Blasters announced the contract extension of their club captain and their Uruguayan midfielder, Adrián Luna, on a three-year deal until 2027. [33] [34] Just two days following Luna's contract extension, the Blasters' striker Dimitrios Diamantakos announced that he would be leaving the side after his two-year stint at the club. [35] Diamantakos left the club as their all-time top-scorer across all competitions, having scored 28 goals in 43 games, [36] and after becoming the first player in the Blasters' history to win the league's Golden Boot award, after having scored 13 goals of 17 matches in the 2023–24 season. [37]

Ivan Vukomanović left the Blasters after his three seasons at the club.
Mikael Stahre replaced Vukomanović as the Blasters head coach in May 2024.

On 23 May, the Blasters announced the appointment of the Swede, Mikael Stahre as their new head coach on a two-year deal till 2026, [38] replacing the Serbian, Ivan Vukomanović. [39] [40]

Pre-season and friendlies

In early June 2024, it was reported that the Blasters would travel to Thailand in the first-week of July for a two-week season camp in the country ahead of the Durand Cup. [57] The following news was officially confirmed by the club in mid-June, with the Blasters camping in Pattana Sports Complex in Chonburi, Thailand from 3 July to 22 July. [160] The Blasters announced their first pre-season friendly on their Thailand tour on 11 July on the matchday against Thai club Pattaya United F.C., which ended in a 2–1 defeat for the Blasters. [161] They played the Thai club Samut Prakan City F.C. next on 17 July which they won 1–3 at full-time, winning their first match of the pre-season friendlies. [162] The Blasters met the Thai League 1 club Ratchaburi F.C. next in their Thailand tour, with the Blasters winning the match by the tally of 1–4. [163] Following the Ratchaburi game, Thai League 3 club Maraleina F.C. announced in Facebook that they would be playing the Blasters on 26 July. [164] However, neither sides announced the scores of the friendly match. Later on, the Blasters' assistant coach Björn Wesström would confirm via an Instagram post that the team had indeed played a fourth friendly match in Thailand before returning to India for the Durand Cup tournament.

The 2024–25 season will be the eleventh season in Kerala Blasters FC's existence, as well as their eleventh season in the Indian Super League. [1]

Following the conclusion of the 2023–24 season, the Blasters started preparations for the new season right-away as just one week after their elimination from the 2023–24 league playoffs, the Blasters announced the departure of their head coach Ivan Vukomanović, who left the club as the most successful head coach in the history of the club, after his three years at the club. [2] Vukomanović was replaced by the Swedish manager Mikael Stahre, who joined the club on a two-year contract in May 2024.

[7] [8]

Background

See also: 2023–24 Kerala Blasters FC season

After a rather disappointing 2023–24 season, the Kerala Blasters' quest for their first ever silverware led them to 2024–25 season. [9] The Blasters' 2023–24 season was marked by a roller-coaster journey consisting of injuries and suspensions. [10] Ahead the 2023–24 campaign, the Blasters ended their six-year association with their then-most-capped player at the time, Sahal Abdul Samad, who was involved in a swap-deal with Mohun Bagan Super Giant for the transfer of Pritam Kotal; with the Blasters receiving a reported transfer fee of ₹90 lakhs (US$108,000). [11] The club went to the United Arab Emirates for their final pre-season camp ahead of the league season. [12] The Blasters began their 2023–24 season with the 2023 Durand Cup, in which they were knocked-out of the tournament after finishing third in the group of four. [13] Following the end of his ten-match ban, the then manager of the Blasters, Ivan Vukomanović, returned to the dugout on 27 October 2023 in the match against Odisha FC. [14] The Blasters had a satisfactory end to the first half of the league, as by the winter-breaks in December, the Blasters reigned at the top of the table, spending 45 days at the spot. [15] During the international breaks in January 2024, the Blasters took part in the 2024 Indian Super Cup, but was disqualified from the tournament for yet again finishing third in the group table. [16] [17] Coming into the second-phase of the league, an injury plagued Blasters' side coupled with dozens of suspensions, lost their winning momentum, as they ended the regular season fifth on the table. [18] However, the Blasters qualified for the league playoffs for a third consecutive time, meeting Odisha FC in Kalinga Stadium on 19 April 2024, who put an end to the Blasters' season, as the Blasters lost the match two goals to one, thus ending a yet another season without a trophy. [19]

Pre-season overview

April

On 26 April 2024, the Blasters announced that they had mutually parted ways with their head coach Ivan Vukomanović, after his three season at the club. [20] Vukomanović left the club as the most capped and successful head coach in the history of the club with a win percentage of 44.8% across the league, [21] surpassing his predecessors at the club. He also held the club record for the highest points-per-game ratio (1.58) in the league, [22] as well as was the first Blasters' head coach to take the side to three consecutive playoffs, and left the team as the only Blasters manager to have a positive goal-difference during his tenure at the club. [23]

On 30 April, it was reported by the Times of India reporter Marcus Mergulhao, a prominent sports journalist in India, that the Blasters had signed the Moroccan winger Noah Sadaoui from FC Goa on a two-year deal till 2026. [24] [25]

May

On 6 May, it was reported by Marcus Mergulhao that the Blasters had imposed a fine of Indian rupees 1 crore (US$120,000) to their then head coach Ivan Vukomanović following the infamous walk-out incident in the 2022–23 season league playoffs. [26] Although not being formally announced by the club, the figure was disclosed in the Blasters' appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport against the All India Football Federation on various charges. [27]

On 12 May, it was reported by Marcus Mergulhao that the Blasters had signed the Indian goalkeeper Nora Fernandes from Aizawl FC on a multi-year deal till 2027.

[29]

On 16 May, the AIFF announced that the Blasters (along with three other clubs in the league) had failed to secure the ICLS Premier 1 club licensing for the 2024–25 season. [30] As per the reports, the Blasters were denied the club licensing due to the safety concerns raised by the AFC General Secretary, Windsor John, over the Blasters' home ground Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Kochi. [31] The clubs, who were denied the Premier 1 club licensing were given with an option to seek an exemption to participate in the national competitions by 22 May 2024 by the national federation. [32]

On 18 May, the Blasters announced the contract extension of their club captain and their Uruguayan midfielder, Adrián Luna, on a three-year deal until 2027. [33] [34] Just two days following Luna's contract extension, the Blasters' striker Dimitrios Diamantakos announced that he would be leaving the side after his two-year stint at the club. [35] Diamantakos left the club as their all-time top-scorer across all competitions, having scored 28 goals in 43 games, [36] and after becoming the first player in the Blasters' history to win the league's Golden Boot award, after having scored 13 goals of 17 matches in the 2023–24 season. [37]

Ivan Vukomanović left the Blasters after his three seasons at the club.
Mikael Stahre replaced Vukomanović as the Blasters head coach in May 2024.

On 23 May, the Blasters announced the appointment of the Swede, Mikael Stahre as their new head coach on a two-year deal till 2026, [38] replacing the Serbian, Ivan Vukomanović. [39] [40]
