ISL: Eelco Schattorie - Sandesh Jhingan is an example in Indian Football

The newly appointed Kerala Blasters coach is also excited by the potential of Sahal Abdul Samad...

Building a strong squad depth at Kerala Blasters is a high priority for new coach Eelco Schattorie following the difficulties he faced at NorthEast United in the latter stages of the 2018-19 Indian Super League (ISL) season.

The Dutchman guided the Highlanders to their maiden ISL play-off qualification but his team struggled at the business end of the tournament due to a spate of injuries and suspensions.

The 47-year-old is keen to ensure that the mistakes at NorthEast are not repeated at Kerala.
