Dorielton Gomes Nascimento: Odisha FC have bolstered their attacking lineup with the signing of seasoned Brazilian forward Dorielton Gomes Nascimento, popularly known as Dori. The 33-year-old joins the Kalinga Warriors on a contract valid until the end of the current season, with an option to extend for another year. Dori’s arrival is seen as a major boost for Odisha FC as they aim to fortify their push in the Indian Super League (ISL).

Dori's illustrious career began with Fluminense FC in Brazil, where he was part of the squad that reached the final of the Copa Libertadores in 2008. Over the years, he expanded his horizons by playing in multiple leagues across Asia, where he established himself as a proven goal-scorer.

The forward gained significant recognition in Bangladesh, playing pivotal roles for Dhaka Abahani and Bashundhara Kings. With Dhaka Abahani, Dori clinched the Federation Cup and Independence Cup in the 2021–22 season while also leading the team to a Bangladesh Premier League runners-up finish. His time with Bashundhara Kings was equally fruitful, as he spearheaded the team to back-to-back Bangladesh Premier League titles in 2022–23 and 2023–24. Additionally, he contributed to consecutive Independence Cup triumphs and a third-place finish in the Federation Cup during the 2022–23 season.
