1. Cornell Glen, Shillong Lajong F.C.
Cornelius Glen is Trinidadian striker who will in action this season for Shillong Lajong F.C.
After starting his career for Trinidadian club FUTGOF, he made various successful stints for many clubs, like FC Dallas, Los Angeles Galaxy and Ma Pau, spread across the USA and the Caribbean nations.
He has been a regular member of the Trinidad and Tobago national squad since 2002 and has scored goals consistently henceforth.
He was also part of the FIFA World Cup 2006 squad held in Germany. Like Fabiani, he has also made a blistering debut for Shillong scoring 2 goals.
So far, Lajong had been in the I-League as “minnows”, but it would interesting to see if he can remove that “minnows” tag this year.
Apart from the above mentioned players, we would see, many other highly talented foreigners play in this year’s I-League like Sean Rooney of Bengaluru, James Moga of East Bengal and James Meyer of Pune. This year’s I-League will also see some promising Indians and we wish them to perform as well as their foreign counterparts.
