5 U-19 players who deserve a national call-up

#1 Rahul KP

Rahul KP versatility makes him stand-out

Versatility is what it defines Rahul KP. The Kerala-born player is capable of plying his trade anywhere on the pitch.

In the FIFA U-17 World Cup, Matos' employed the player at the defence, then in the midfield, and then in the attack and he did those with perfection.

While Dheeraj Singh hogged the limelight, many were unaware of the unique ability Rahul KP had. Currently, he's one of the key players in the Indian Arrows' squad.

He's among the few players, who had represented India throughout all the three games in the World Cup.

His goal against Mumbai City FC in the Super Cup, outclassing one of ISLs best defender Lucian Goian was a treat to watch. Rahul outran Goian to score a Bergkamp-esque goal. Class, isn't?

As India's frailties are visible, Rahul KP deserves to get a call-up and Constantine could use him as a backup option at multiple positions.
