Arindam Bhattacharya is an Indian footballer who plays as a Goalkeeper for Sporting Goa on loan from FC Pune City and India. He was adjudged as the best keeper in I-League after his remarkable performances in helping Churchill Brothers win the 2008-09 I-League, and later that year, was called up by Bob Houghton to the India first team.

Arindam used to play football in Surya Sen Club in Khardah. Then he joined SAI senior team in 2006 where he stayed for 2 years before joining Churchill Brothers. He was adjudged the best goalkeeper in an Inter SAI Tournament held in 2004.

Arindam made his debut for FC Pune City against Kerala Blasters on 30 October 2014 at the home stadium Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex in Pune. On 7 November 2014 at Salt Lake Stadium in the match against Atlético de Kolkata, John Goossens suffered a very serious lower rib cage and paraspinal muscle injuries after a collision with Arindam in 78th minute.

For the 2015 I-League season, he joined Bharat FC.
