India has been a fringe nation on world stage if we consider participation; however India does have a huge following from a viewership perspective. When one refers about football in India, its spread with respect to the national team and young kids taking up the game, India is termed quite justifiably as a ‘sleeping giant’.
Manchester United is the most popular club in the world.With more than 25 million fans in India.It has already opened soccer schools in cities like Mumbai and Gurgaon. But the we need to increase the popularity of the sport which would certainly improve the stature of local clubs and the game itself.A pre-season tour would be the best way to achieve our goal.Hope to see you soon!
