Was reading my copy of When Saturday Comes and came across an article of an Indian player, his name rang and a bell and as I read on it became clear. He was the Indian lad we had on trial during the Coleman era, it was always a bit unclear what happened to him in the end. He's just signed for Sporting Lisbon's B team and there's a little bit about his time at Cov.
Chhetri's first taste of Europe was Coventry in January 2009. The club, struggling in the Championship, had the player for a week but chose not to pursue the opportunity further. His agent claimed that City's manager at the time, Chris Coleman, wanted a big target man rather than a skilful but small striker. Some Indian journalists felt that Chhetri had not been given a fair chance and there was more suspicion that the Sky Blues were more interested in boosting their profile in Asia than taking a serious look at the player.
