Indian Super League: Kerala Blasters signed two local U-21 players to the season 4. Jishnu Balakrishnan and Sahal Abdul Samad of Gokulam FC, who represented Kerala in the Santosh Trophy recently. Since U-21 players do not come under the draft system, the team can directly sign them.

Sahal Abdul Samad is from Kannur and Jishnu Balakrishnan from Malappuram. Both were playing for Gokulam FC, who reached the semifinal in Kerala Premier League 2007.
