Nikhil developed an interest in football at a very young age. Impressing in several tournaments in Gujarat, he and his family moved to Mumbai in search of greener pastures. He represented several local clubs including PIFA Colaba, Kenkre FC, and the then MDFA Elite Division side Mumbai FC. With adequate grooming from coaches at the latter club, Prabhu represented their U-16 team as captain in the I-League Elite Division. Thereafter, he also represented Maharashtra in the Santosh Trophy at just 17.
Prabhu is one of the few defenders who can play well in multiple positions and who have the goalscoring touch as well. Despite being a defender, the youngster is a specialist when it comes to set-pieces. Moreover, his attitude, both on and off the pitch has helped him progress at each level in his career so far.
We would like to welcome Nikhil to the Juggernauts and wish him the best for the upcoming season.
