Sumeet Jai Passi (born 12 September 1994) is an Indian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Inter Kashi.
Club career
[edit]Early career
[edit]Passi began playing the game at a very young age and thanks his father, Jai Prakash Passi who is a former Railways player, as the man who motivated him to become a dedicated footballer.[2] Passi then began his footballing career as a training with Chandigarh Football Academy.[3] In 2007 it was announced that Passi would be the captain of the Chandigarh football team at the under-14s level for the 53rd National School Games.[3]
Senior career
[edit]Passi made his professional debut in football on 2 February 2013 against East Bengal in which he came on in the 77th minute for Dhanpal Ganesh as Pailan Arrows lost the match 2–1.[4]
Jamshedpur
[edit]On 23 July 2017, Passi was selected in the 12th round of the 2017–18 ISL Players Draft by Jamshedpur for the 2017–18 Indian Super League.[5] He made his debut for the club on 18 February 2018 against Chennaiyin. He started the match and played 90 minutes as Jamshedpur drew 1–1.[6]
East Bengal
[edit]In August 2022, Indian Super League club East Bengal announced the signing of Passi, on a one-year deal.[7]
On 22 August, he made his debut against Indian Navy in the Durand Cup, which ended in a 0–0 stalemate.[8][9] On 28 August, he scored a defining own goal against Kolkata derby rival ATK Mohun Bagan, when a seemingly harmless corner bounced awkwardly in front of him, to deflect inside.[10][11] Six days later, he scored his first two goals for the club against Mumbai City, in a thrilling 4–3 win.[12][13]
International career
[edit]Passi made his debut for India against Laos on 2 June 2016. He scored his first international goal against Laos on 7 June 2016 with an assist from Jackichand Singh.[14]
