Jackson Singh, among the probables who are training under national coach Luis Norton de Matos for the upcoming FIFA under-17 World Cup to be hosted by India in October, is optimistic that the hosts could create history in their debut appearance in the tournament.
"I hope we can do our best for the country and we can create history in football," said the Manipuri midfielder yesterday.
Hosts India join African side Niger and Oceania outfit New Caledonia in making their U-17 World Cup debut.
"If I want to play in India I would like to play for Bengaluru FC," said Jackson when asked whom would he like to represent in club football in the country.
"We learnt how to hold on to the ball and how to finish well," said the youngster when asked about the lessons that the team learnt on its recent tour of Europe. "We are preparing well, we will all give our best," he added.
