‘No better quality player’ than Chhetri, says Jamil as India men’s football coach leaves door open for iconic forward

Sunil Chhetri, who had come out of retirement earlier this year, has not been included in India head coach Khalid Jamil’s national camp for the CAFA Nations Cup, but the latter insists the 41-year-old forward will walk into the team for their crucial games against Singapore in October.

Legendary Indian forward Sunil Chhetri had bid international football goodbye in June last year, only to make a U-turn less than a year later. Reuters
