One of the biggest names to play the Indian Super League is Robbie Keane. He was part of the ATK for a single season in 2017-18 and served both as a player and a manager after the sacking of Teddy Sheringham and Ashley Westwood. Though his time was limited due to injuries, the Irish forward made good contributions to the side.

Robbie Keane appeared in nine matches for ATK and scored 6 goals. The 37-year old had difficulties coping with the Indian conditions and injuries came back to haunt him frequently during the season. But he overcame the obstacles and earned his place in the hearts of the ATK fans.

ATK's fortunes up front would definitely be better had Keane re-signed with the Kolkatan outfit this season. The combination of the former Tottenham striker with the likes of Everton Santos or Kalu Uche would surely give opposition defenders nightmares.

Robbie Keane is currently not part of any club after he left ATK.
