Four budding footballers from Mumbai are all set to head to London to train with Queens Park Rangers. The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, who is on a visit to India before heading to Pakistan, announced the quartet's names yesterday. Khan, who was attending the ninth annual finals of the Mumbai Soccer Challenge at The Western Railway Sports Ground in Worli last afternoon, was the chief guest and spectator for a challenge match to win the 'inaugural Mayor of London Cup'.

"No matter how big Messi or Ronaldo are, even they don't have a cup named after them," he chortled. His energy was contagious, which is really saying something as he had Bollywood heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor for company onstage. "This time, for the first time in the scheme's nine-year history, two girls and two boys will be heading to London."
