In an inspirational move for Indian football, which has long struggled to make its presence felt on the world stage, Indian captain Sunil Chhetri signed up with Sporting Lisbon, the legendary Portuguese club that has featured the likes of Luis Figo, Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani in its ranks.
Players from the club’s ‘B’ team, of which Chhetri will be a part, play in the second division of the league. The one-year stint will offer Chhetri a chance to imbibe enhanced training techniques besides rubbing shoulders with superior-quality coaches and players.
