In a riposte to Atletico de Kolkata (ATK) co-owner Sanjiv Goenka's recent statement that there can only be one team from Kolkata when the two leagues eventually merge, I-League CEO Sunando Dhar has said that he sees no problem why there cannot be more than one team from one region.
"If you are building a team and if you are there for the long run, I am sure you have plans to develop your own fanbase," Dhar said in an exclusive interview days before the 10th edition of the I-League kicks off.
"If there are eight teams in London, just in EPL. There are other teams from the Championship also in London and each has got their own fanbase.
"So similarly, I am sure there can be three teams or more than one team from Kolkata, Goa and Chennai and that should not be a problem for those teams," he added.
@Shubham_northeastern, not because of personal attack of a single individual. don't do it; you are entitled to have your views and express it. Unfortunate that the reactions are so vitriolic. This IS a forum for civilized people.
