"I see FC Goa as the ideal step in my career and hope to achieve the best results for the club," Lobera said in the club's press release.
"I'm convinced that the club is ideally placed to compete in not just the ISL but across the youth level as well. "I'm keen to play my part in helping the club work towards a unified playing philosophy, which will extend beyond the realms of the club to all the young footballers in Goa who are keen to take up the game," Lobera added.
