Sandesh Jhingan: I'm just a kid from Chandigarh who is chasing his dreams

The Hindu  

Sandesh Jhingan joined Croatian top division side HNK Sibenik on Wednesday to join a list of elite Indian footballers who have signed a professional contract with a top-tier European club. The 28-year-old, named India’s footballer of the year, says, “I'm just a kid from Chandigarh who is chasing his dreams and trying to fulfil his potential.” Jhingan first heard of the interest from the Croatian club in June this year when he was in Qatar with the Indian national team. The burly defender added that the Croatian national team’s phenomenal growth, which saw it finish runner-up at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, was also a driving factor behind his move to Sibenik. Whether I play or not is on me - if I play, then it’s ‘well done Sandesh’, if I don’t, then it’s ‘work hard Sandesh’.” RELATED| Sandesh's transfer was finalised on the same day when his former side ATK Mohun Bagan began its AFC Cup campaign with a 2-0 win over Bengaluru FC.
