New Delhi: Having recovered from an injury to his forearm, young midfielder Amarjit Singh is aiming to get back into the national team setup via the Indian Super League.
The India U-17 World Cup captain, who was undergoing rehabilitation after an injury to his forearm, started training with his club Jamshedpur FC and was even on the bench in their last Hero Indian Super League match.
“My sole resolution at the moment is to get back into my club team, and then the national team. I was on the bench in our last Hero Indian Super League match but I am still awaiting a chance,” Amarjit said. The 19-year-old added, “And it’s not just about the chance, it’s about me proving to my coaches that I am good enough and better than others. “If they get the confidence that I can make an impact on the field, it’s only then I will get my chance.” When asked if has been in touch with national team coach Igor Stimac, Amarjit responded in the positive.
“Coach keeps a constant tab on what I am doing. In addition, professor has been advising me on the workouts, constantly checking on my status.”
