About Sanish Shrestha

Sanish Shrestha (Nepali: सनिश श्रेष्ठ; born 9 November 2000) is a Nepalese professional footballer who plays as a right-back for Martyr's Memorial A-Division League club Church Boys United and the Nepal national team.

Sanish, who joined Nepal A.P.F. in 2021 after making an impact with Friends Club in the A Division League, was named the league's best player in the 2023 season. He had also won the best defender award in the 2021 Birat Gold Cup.

At APF, he played as a right back and later shifted to a more central defensive role when the club's Ivorian center back Adama Doumbia was suspended due to a red card.

On 22 March 2023, Sanish made his international debut for Nepal during a 2–0 victory over Laos in the 2023 Three Nations Cup.
