My steady rise to success can inspire many: Vignesh
The Hindu
D. Vignesh vividly remembers the early days of the Indian Super League (ISL). “We all know who all came… Del Piero, Marco Materazzi and all stars. I didn’t even dream of playing ISL because I wouldn’t have got in. There was Lucio, Elano… all world cup players. I thought I could reach that stage only much later.”
After six years of toil, the 22-year-old Bengaluru native has finally realised his dream, becoming an integral part of Mumbai City FC, for whom he has played in all sixteen games this season — including eight starts.
