Youth and early career with RFYC[]

Born in Kozhikode, Kerala, Nemil started playing football through V. P. Sathyan Soccer Academy at the age of ten. In 2015, he was scouted by Reliance Foundation Young Champs (RFYC) academy as a part of a nationwide young talent hunt.[1] His dribbling skill, passing accuracy and two-footed shooting ability earned him praises at the RFYC in Navi Mumbai.[2] In his first three years at RFYC, Nemil registered 45 goals and 31 assists across various youth level competitions. His strong performances earned him trips to England in 2016 and Japan in 2018, where the RFYC took on the local teams there.[2]

Nemil won the Best Player Award at the 2018 U-17 Subroto Cup,[3] was also named the Mumbai District Football Association Super Division's best midfielder in 2019.[4] He won the 2019 Vedanta Youth Cup with RFYC team as he scored the winner in the final against Bengaluru FC and awarded another Player of the Tournament title.[5] In March 2019, RFYC sent Nemil to Marcet High-performance academy in Spain, on his consistent display of quality with the academy. During his time in Spain, Nemil had a successful trail at Barcelona-based club FE Grama.[6]

FC Goa[]

On 20 October 2020, FC Goa announced that the club had reached an agreement with RFYC for the transfer of Nemil. He joined the Indian Super League club on a four-year deal.[7]

Promoted to the senior team, Nemil made his debut against CP San Cristóbal in the Tercera División.[8][9]

Return to Goa[]
