5 Players who could be dropped from the Indian national team

#3 Pritam Kotal

Kotal after scoring an own goal

Pritam Kotal started his career playing for the Palian Arrows and moved to Mohun Bagan where he made over 60 appearances and was part of the league win as well. He went on loan to FC Pune City for two seasons before signing with ATK in 2016 where he won his maiden Indian Super League title.

The 24 year old signed for the Delhi Dynamos this season for Rs. 75 Lakhs, becoming the second most expensive defender in this season's draft behind Anas. He has been part of an abysmal defence that has conceded 19 goals in seven matches en route to becoming the first team to lose six matches on the bounce in the ISL. He even scored an own goal in the 5-1 demolition of his side by FC Goa.

The right back has made 22 appearances for the national team, starting 21 of those matches and stamping himself as a mainstay in the senior team over the last two years. But, on the back of some poor performances for Delhi, he could be dropped by Constantine from the national team.
