Our head coach is Ramesh Bista and he holds the AFC ‘A’ license in coaching. His playing career largely consisted of representing amatuer and professional football teams including the Karnataka Sporting Association (KSA). He has achieved many milestones in his coaching career so far. Former teams and academies where he has served as a head coach include Liverpool International Academy-DSK Shivajians and FC Pune City U-18’s before taking over the coaching setup at FC Madras in 2021. Coach Bista’s vision for FC Madras is to create a strong grassroots programme in order to help strengthen the youth development process in the academy. His ultimate goal is to turn FC Madras into a talent factory where the players eventually end up playing at the elite professional level in Indian football or abroad. His wealth of experience in coaching will be very important for FC Madras’s growth.
