Anupam Sarkar (born 26 April 1985) is an Indian footballer who plays as a defender for Mohammedan of the Calcutta Football League.

Club career[edit]

Anupam began his professional football career with East Bengal in 2004. He was also the captain of the West Bengal football team, that represents the state of West Bengal in the National Football Championship (Santosh Trophy).

In 2012, Sarkar signed with Prayag United, managed by Dutchman Eelco Schattorie.

“When I got to know from FC Pune City that Anupam was available, I did not hesitate to share it with my President. I am convinced he will do a good job here. Every player, no matter the age, continues to learn every day if he has the right people around him. The Indian Super League, and all the clubs participating in it, did bring Indian football on a right track. The better the players are, the better the league is. Indian fans deserve that. FC Adeli and myself are pleased to give a hand in that direction and wish Anupam all the very best in Georgia.”

Philippe De Ridder, Technical Director and Manager of FC Adeli Batumi, on Anupam's arrival in Georgia.[13]
