History

On 20 February 2018, it was announced by the All India Football Federation, the organizing body for Indian football, that the FC Goa, along with six other Indian Super League sides, would field a reserve team in the I-League 2nd Division, India's second division football league.[3] In November 2020, FC Goa tied up with German football club RB Leipzig, to focus on youth development and coach training on a three-year strategic partnership. As part of the deal, coaches from RB Leipzig's Academy will conduct workshops in Goa.[4]

On 8 January 2021, Deggie Cardozo was appointed as the Head coach of FC Goa Reserves.[5]
