Aman Thapa (born 3 January 1999) is an Indian professional footballer who plays as a winger for I-League club Rajasthan United.

Club career

Rajasthan United

In September 2021, Rajasthan United roped in Thapa ahead of the I-League Qualifiers. On 4 October, Thapa scored the winning goal against Ryntih in a thrilling encounter, which ended 3–2.[1] He played a big role in the club's successful promotion campaign to the I-League, scoring two goals in six appearances.

In February 2022, he was resigned by the club ahead of the I-League restart after the tournament got suspended due to a COVID-19 outbreak among the players and staff.[2][3] On 8 March, Thapa scored the historic first-ever goal for Rajasthan United in the I-League, in a 1–0 win against Aizawl.[4][5]

Mohammedan

In June 2022, Thapa joined Mohammedan on a two-year deal.[6] On 18 June, Rajasthan United officially objected to the transfer of Thapa to Mohammedan. The club has said he has a valid contract till 31 May, 2023.[7]

Rajasthan United

Thapa returned to Rajasthan United, after the objection was accepted. He was made part of their Durand Cup squad.[8]
