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.[2] He had also won the best defender award in the 2021 Birat Gold Cup.[3]
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.[4]
On 22 March 2023, Sanish made his international debut for Nepal during a 2–0 victory over Laos in the 2023 Three Nations Cup.[5]
