NEW DELHI: A “frustrated” Sunil Chhetri is not ready to just warm benches at Sporting Lisbon B team and may consider plying his trade at top Asian clubs if he does not get to play with the Portuguese side.
Chhetri, who joined the reserve side of the top Portuguese side last July, is now uncertain of his immediate future.
“I am leaving for Portugal very soon and speak to the people at the club, including the coach. I will speak to them and find out what they want from me. Accordingly, I will decide what to do,” said Chhetri who just played five games for Sporting Lisbon B in the six months he was there.
Chhetri said trying for some top Asian clubs could be an option.
“Yes, I will consider trying for Asian clubs. That is an option. But as I said I am not going to take any decision now. After I speak to people at Sporting Lisbon, I will think over what to do, whether to go for another loan or look for other options,” said Chhetri. (PTI)
