Sotirio, having spent his entire professional football career in Australia, is a versatile attacker that can play as a winger or forward and comes with a bag of experience.

He was part of the side that finished as A-League runners-up on two occasions during the 2013-14 and 2015-16 seasons. The dynamic forward later turned up for Wellington Phoenix FC and after three seasons, went on to sign for Newcastle Jets on a two-year deal in 2022. Sotorio, however, spent just one season with the Jets.

The Australian will look to make a mark in India with the Blasters, who qualified for the Hero ISL playoffs during the 2022-23 season. (ANI)
