Indian football captain Sunil Chhetri has been honoured by FIFA, world football’s governing body, with a new video series chronicling his life and career in the sport.
The three-episode series, titled Captain Fantastic, is streaming on FIFA+, the official streaming platform recently launched by FIFA.
The series explores Sunil Chhetri’s life from a young age, how he developed an interest in football and traces his journey through the junior level up to the pinnacle.
It includes interviews with his family and friends and Sunil Chhetri himself.
The 38-year-old Sunil Chhetri made his debut for the Indian football team in 2005 and has since scored 84 goals for the national team. He is the highest-scorer for the Indian men’s football team and the sixth highest goal-scorer in men’s international football.
Sunil Chhetri only stands behind legends Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in the scoring charts amongst active footballers.
