Footballers including Sandesh Jhingan, Captain Chhetri nominated for Arjuna Award

Some of the country's top footballers, including Indian team captain Sunil Chhetri, praised defender Sandesh Jhingan, who is going to be awarded the Arjuna Award. He is the 27th footballer to receive this prestigious award. According to an All India Football Federation (AIFF) release, Arjun, who won the Padma Shri award in 2011 and Arjun in 2019, said that Chhetri was happy that he was an ideal role player.

Sunil Chhetri said in a message to Jhingan, 'Arjun is welcome in the club. 'He said,' When I heard the news, I wanted to congratulate him first. For this reason I called them and we discussed. 'Chhetri said,' He is an excellent example for the new generation of Indian players - he is fearless, ambitious and always wants to improve himself. 'He further said,' He is the best ideal player for the youth and I believe him blindly. Best wishes to them. '

In March 2015, Jhingan made his Indian debut against Nepal in the FIFA World Cup 2018 qualifier play-offs played in Guwahati and former goalkeeper Subrata Paul was the captain of the team who received the Arjuna Award in 2016. Subrata praised Jhingan and said that the best is yet to come for this 27-year-old Palyar. He said, 'Arjuna Award for any player is a big achievement. I hope that he will take this award as an inspiration and will continue to perform brilliantly for his country and club and achieve maximum success for him. '
