Meet Rishabh, a passionate soccer writer at EssentiallySports, who channels his 19 years of active sports fandom into his writing. His love for soccer is evident, especially for Lionel Messi and the Argentine national team, which he had the pleasure of covering during their victorious 2022 World Cup campaign in Qatar. Rishabh also keeps a close eye on top club teams such as FC Barcelona, Manchester City, and Wrexham AFC, the latter being recently revived by Ryan Reynolds.

Being a die-hard fan of tennis and an ardent follower of Rafael Nadal, tennis has been a part of my life even before I ventured into sports journalism. If I have learned anything from the incredible career of the ?King of Clay?, it is to constantly enhance your skill sets, no matter at what stage you are in your career. This motivated me to complete an Executive Post Graduate Diploma in Sports Management while pursuing my career as a sports writer. At ES, I have written over 1600 articles, covering a wide range of topics: From on-court controversies to the personal exploits of the biggest tennis stars. Moreover, I particularly enjoy covering Grand Slams, where the best of the best battle it out for the biggest honors in tennis. Beyond covering tennis for ES, I am interested in reading about current affairs and traveling to exotic locations around the world.
