Ranbir: I will miss star attractions Forlan, Chhetri at Mumbai FC

Indian Super League (ISL) team Mumbai City FC co-owner and Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor yesterday said the team will be missing their star attractions this season with the departure of Uruguayan striker Diego Forlan and India captain Sunil Chhetri, but felt that it will provide an opportunity for the local players to shine.

Mumbai City FC kick off their campaign with an away game against Bengaluru FC, on November 19. And last year’s semi-finalist saw Forlan not extending his contract for the current season, and Chhetri opting to play for Bengaluru FC. "Yes, of course. Mumbai City FC are missing the star factor. There is no doubt Chhetri and Forlan were our crowd-pullers last season. But this is one of the challenges we will face this season. We need to have new stars. And you never know, we might have a new local star," Ranbir told mid-day yesterday.
