Impressed by his athleticism and skill, he was scouted by Minerva Punjab and joined their academy team in 2016. After spending a year with the reserves, the strong central defensive midfielder was promoted to the first team before joining the Indian Arrows on loan. In 2017, Jeakson was picked up for the Indian team that took part in the U-17 FIFA World Cup and scored India’s first and only goal ever in a FIFA tournament.

“I’m very happy that Jeakson has extended his contract with us. He’s a true professional and always portrays a good attitude in training with a desire to improve. He is an important player in our team, and I’m happy to see him develop with us,” said Karolis Skinkys, Sporting Director, Kerala Blasters FC.

Jeakson’s outstanding performances in the World Cup and in the I-League with Indian Arrows saw him sign for the Kerala Blasters Reserves in 2018. He was promoted to the First team squad during the 2019-20 ISL season wherein he played an integral part of the midfield and made 15 appearances that season.

“I am delighted to extend my contract with Kerala Blasters FC. The management has a great vision for me and the club, and I am really excited to be a part of this project. The club has the most passionate fans in the country, and I can’t wait to play in front of the yellow sea at Kaloor soon,” said Jeakson Singh on his contract extension with the club.
