Aniket Jadhav is a name that rose to prominence after the 2017 U-17 World Cup in India where he was part of the first ever Indian team to play in a World Cup event.
However, the Kolhapur-based youngster's journey began much before that. He was one of the 10 players from India to participate in the 2014 FC Bayern Munich Youth Cup World Finals in Munich.
As a 14-year-old, he represented Pune FC's U-16 team that defeated Bengaluru FC 4-2 via penalty shoot-outs to win the India Finals of the Bayern Munich Youth Cup where he was watched closely by former German footballer Paul Breitner.
