Prabhsukhan Gill was happy to join the Kerala Blasters and said at his unveiling: “The management was very genuine when they explained their future plans for myself and the team. This, along with the temptation to play in front of the best fans is what motivated me to move to Kerala Blasters FC. I want the fans to know that I will give it my all and will put up a fight whenever the team needs me,”

Speaking about the Prabhsukhan Gill, Kerala Blasters’ assistant coach Ishfaq Ahmed said: “As a 19-year old, Prabhsukhan is very mature for his age and a confident goalkeeper too. He is one of the very few goalkeepers in India who is very good with his hands and feet. His signing reinforces our trust in young talents and our focus on their growth and development." Ahmed continued by saying that he's very excited that Prabhsukhan Gill has joined the Blasters and is confident he will be a valuable addition to the squad.
