Monu Goyat Biography

Monu Goyat is an Indian kabaddi player known for his success in the Pro Kabaddi League and for becoming one of the highest-paid non-cricket athletes in 201

Early life and background

Monu Goyat was born on 16 October 1994 in Kungar, Haryana, and grew up in Hansi, Haryana. He comes from a farming family; his father is Ram Bhagat Singh and his mother is Darshani Devi. Monu spent his childhood in a rural setting and began playing kabaddi around the age of ten under the guidance of his uncle, Vijender Singh. He has an elder brother named Devendra Goyat.

Monu later joined the Indian Army in 2011, where he continued to develop as a kabaddi player by representing army teams and training under coach Jasvir Singh. His army service meant he did not take part in the initial seasons of the Pro Kabaddi League, but it also provided him structured coaching and competition experience through Services Sports Board events.

Career

Monu made his Pro Kabaddi League debut in 2016 with Bengal Warriors. In that first season he registered 59 raid points and 4 tackle points across 13 matches, which put him among the league’s top raiders that year. Over subsequent seasons he played for multiple franchises, including stints with Patna Pirates, Haryana Steelers, U.P. Yoddha, and Telugu Titans.

A breakthrough moment in Monu’s professional career came when Haryana Steelers signed him ahead of the league’s sixth season. The deal, reported at 1.51 crore rupees, made him the most expensive player in the league’s history at the time and marked him as the highest-earning non-cricket sportsperson for that year. While with Patna Pirates in an earlier season he accumulated 191 raid points, and across the league he has been recognised among the sport’s leading raiders — at one point rated the fourth-best raider in a season.

On the international stage Monu has represented India, including participation at the 2018 Asian Games where he was part of the squad that won a bronze medal. He was also a member of the Indian team that won gold at the 2018 Dubai Kabaddi Masters. Coaches credited with shaping his style include Vijender Singh and Jasvir Singh.

Playing style and training

Monu is known for a fast, attacking style of play; one signature move attributed to him is the running hand touch, a swift raid technique that allows him to tag opponents and retreat to safety. Off the mat he places emphasis on fitness and cross-training, frequently practising in the gym, doing yoga, and swimming.

Public profile

Monu goes by the nickname "Silent Killer" and maintains a public presence on social media. He is a dog lover and keeps a pet Husky. In addition to his sporting life, he is known to favour homemade food and lists actor Sanjay Dutt among his preferences. His vehicle collection has included models such as a Hyundai Creta and several bikes.

Personal life

Monu is married to Ranu Bahal and the couple has a daughter. He follows Hinduism and is identified with the Jatt community. Physically, Monu’s listed measurements include a height of approximately 177 cm (5'10") and a weight around 80 kg (176 lbs), with chest, waist, and biceps measurements reported in available profiles.

Latest updates

As of the information provided, Monu continues to be active in professional kabaddi and has played for multiple Pro Kabaddi League franchises after his record transfer. His international honours include a gold medal at the Dubai Kabaddi Masters in 2018 and a bronze at the 2018 Asian Games. He remains recognised for his raiding abilities and athletic preparation.
