Sunil Chetri, has been the star name to emerge from Indian football after Bhaichung Bhutia. He was tipped to make it big when he first came has made his first big stride. Sunil Chetri is all set to become the third Indian player to head to Europe after having being called by Coventry City for trials. This news was earlier confirmed by his father Mr.Kharga Chetri. After Mohammed Salim played for Celtic in 1937 and Indian captain Bhaichung Bhutia donned the colours of Bury FC, the Delhi lad will be the third Indian following in their footsteps if he manages to impress in the trials. These are great times for Indian Football with players set to play in the MLS and if Chetri successfully completes his trial it will mark a great beginning for Indian football this year. And with the national team improving all time under Bob Houghton we can look forward to a positive year. Hoping for the day when an Indian plays in the English Premier League.
