Anas Edathodika comes out of international retirement

Anas Edathodika is all set to join the national team camp starting on June 25 in Mumbai for the Intercontinental Cup after he decided to come out of international retirement.

The Kerala Blasters centre back announced that he is going to quit international football after the AFC Asian Cup in January 2019 but "a message from Coach (Igor) Stimac" was enough to change his mind.

"Coach Stimac has shown his faith in me, and it's my turn to repay him. Coach messaged me to join the upcoming camp. Honestly, I was taken aback.
