Ishan Pandita made headlines back in 2016 after the he was chosen to play in Spain with first division club CD Leganes, making him the first Indian player to do so. Albeit with the U-19 team, Pandita was given a unique opportunity to show his talent on a global stage after the youngster excelled in a grassroots programme.

Having his origins in Kashmir, Pandita played most of his football in Bengaluru and shone at the famous Manchester United Soccer Schools programme. A player with serious attacking instincts, Pandita now has dreams of playing football in Spain's elite league the La Liga, where he wishes to mix it up with the world's best footballers.
