Amarjit Singh Kiyam led India in the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup and captained the Indian Arrows team for two seasons in the I-League and Super Cup. An attacking midfielder, his accurate through-balls and pinpoint short passes have created plenty of goalscoring chances for his team.

Amarjit's ability to link up with the wingers and spotting their free-run could be a bonus India inherits if Stimac chooses him. Amarjit's passing coupled with Udanta's pace in the right wing would be a lethal combination for India in the attacking forefront.

Amarjit was selected in India's squad for the 2020 U-23 Championship Qualifiers but didn't make it through to the starting eleven. India lacked the attacking impetus in his absence and failed to qualify for the main edition of the tournament.
