Sitting within the confines of my house in Como, Italy, I always fancied being a part of this much talked about football revolution in India called the Indian Super League. India asa country has always been a massive interest for us in Europe and the moment I was presented with this opportunity it didn’t take me long to say ‘yes’.
It was a new challenge for me, and even though I was excited, I was not quite sure what was in store for me. But it was not hard settling in with the team and after spending time with the boys and team management, I feel at home and now I am eagerly waiting for the season to begin, which for sure will mark a new beginning for Delhi Dynamos FC as well as for me.
