Kerala Blasters left-back Jessel Carneiro opened up about the struggles he endured before achieving his goal of playing in the Indian Super League (ISL) and threw some light over the unwavering determination that helped him get through it.
The Goa-born defender was a late entrant into the ISL, making his debut at 28, an age where most players are halfway through their career. He spent his formative years and the early years of his career in Goa, plying his trades for the likes of Raya FC, Curtorim Gymkhana FC, Salgaocar, Dempo, FC Bardez and so on.
