As the Indian Super League continues to make strides in the country's senior teams, Chennaiyin FC coach Owen Coyle believes that the focus should also be on developing young talent at the grassroots level. Coyle stressed the need for initiatives that scout talented players at a young age and provide them with the right opportunities to help them progress to the national team. This comes as the RFDL returned with its fourth season, featuring 54 teams across the nation and aiming to develop players to reach the professional level.
The 2024-25 Indian Super League (ISL) season has not started off well for Chennaiyin FC as they suffered a 3-2 loss to Punjab FC on Thursday. Manager Owen Coyle addressed the press before their next match against Jamshedpur FC, emphasizing the importance of team chemistry and talent over a big budget. Coyle's previous success with Jamshedpur FC, despite having a smaller budget, serves as motivation for the club as they look to turn their season around. In an interview, FC Goa coach Manolo Marquez also hinted at two players who could make a big impact on the league.
The two teams are gearing up for an intense and unpredictable matchup in the Indian Super League. With both clubs displaying strong performances in recent matches, fans and enthusiasts eagerly await the clash. For FC Goa, securing a higher spot in the playoffs is the goal, while Chennaiyin FC will aim to maintain their newfound momentum and finish their league campaign on a high note.
