FC Goa mutually part ways with Armando Sadiku
Sadiku finished the ISL 2024-25 season as the Gaurs' leading goalscorer with 10 goals to his name.
Indian Super League (ISL) side FC Goa have announced the departure of forward Armando Sadiku ahead of the Kalinga Super Cup 2025.
The Albanian striker, who joined the Gaurs this season after winning the League Shield with MBSG last year, scored 10 goals in 24 ISL appearances. The lethal goalscorer took the league by storm with a fiery start, netting eight goals in his first seven consecutive games.

However, Sadiku struggled to find the back of the net in the latter part of the season, scoring only two goals in his next 17 matches. His final goal for the Gaurs came against Bengaluru FC in the second-leg semi-final, where he levelled the aggregate score immediately after coming off the bench, before Sunil Chhetri netted the winner for the Blues in stoppage time.
Despite the dry spell, Sadiku remained a key figure in FC Goa’s attack. He finished as the Gaurs’ top scorer this season, averaging 14 passes per game, creating 19 chances, and providing two assists.
FC Goa will now look to regroup as they prepare to take on Gokulam Kerala FC in the Round of 16 of the Kalinga Super Cup on April 21.
