Anwar Ali

The central defender from Jalandhar has been an ISL regular. Ali has represented India before, but with the emergence of new talents, has seen his importance being reduced in the national setup. He last played for East Bengal, where the 33-year-old unfortunately suffered a myocardial ischemic attack this April.

He was back on to the football field soon, but might find it tough to sustain at the required levels of the ISL. Ali is not predicted to start the majority of the matches for Delhi this season and may have to satisfy himself with a bit part role from the bench. The centre-back, hence, may now be seen for the last time in the Indian Super League.
