FIFA chief Gianni Infantino says India a football boom waiting to happen...
FIFA president Gianni Infantino has said that India is a football boom waiting to happen, days before the country host its biggest football tournament, the U-17 World Cup. Infantino felt there is plenty of scope to develop the sport in India.
“Although football has been making considerable strides in the country for years now, there is a unanimous sense that the room for growth is still of gigantic proportions. India is a football boom waiting to happen. It is simply a matter of investing in development – and, more importantly, doing so in a wise and effective manner,” Infantino wrote.
“This is what the FIFA Forward Programme aims to achieve with tailor made projects. For every territory in the world, there is a sensible plan to help football grow.” he added.
