Virat Kohli unveils new home jersey of FC Goa for 2019-2020 season
Kolkata: Indian cricket captain and FC Goa co-owner Virat Kohli on Tuesday launched his team's new home jersey for the 2019-2020 season at an event conducted in the Bambolim Athletic Ground here.
A crowd of near 3000 was in attendance as the Gaurs also launched their new jersey and Annual Campaign named ‘Be Goa’.
The jersey this time has transcended to completely orange.
Speaking at the event, Kohli stated, “It’s always great to come back to Goa. The fans here are so passionate about football and crazy for FC Goa. Coming back here, always gives me hope that the sports culture can truly be built in this country. The houses, the cars are adorned with the club colours. It’s truly brilliant."
“The team is in great shape. They have been doing brilliantly the last two seasons with the Super Cup win it was just another validation of the process,” added Virat.
“What is really amazing is the work that goes on beyond the first team. The youth structure is firmly in place and the club is looking to be trailblazers in youth development and grassroots. In terms of philosophy, style of play and success, I am happy where we are at, but we can’t afford to be myopic in Indian football. There is still a long way to go and we aim to be the face of change in Indian football," he said.
