\u201cFor me personally I am very happy (with Jhingan\u2019s return) because I have someone other than Amrinder (Singh) to have a conversation with because as you know the squad is pretty young and I am on the other side of the age parameter. So having someone like him who I can talk to in the dressing room makes me very happy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u2018I am also very grateful for Sandesh\u2019s return because obviously he is a very important pillar for his club and the national team. I just hope he keeps himself healthy and helps Indian football like he has in the past. He is a very good defender and like Sunil (Chhetri) bhai, he is a once in a generation player,\u201d Gurpreet told IANS in a virtual press conference. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
Jhinghan suffered a knee injury during the first half of India\u2019s AFC Asian Cup game against Syria and was forced to miss the rest of the competition alongside the FIFA WC Qualifiers and the end of the 2023\/24 ISL campaign in which Goa finished in third place, just three points behind ISL Shield winners Mohun Bagan Super Giants. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
The 31-year old center back returned to action as he started and played the entire 90 minutes in the 3-0 win over Bengaluru FC, the latter\u2019s first league loss of the season, and also registered a 2-1 victory over Punjab FC which saw him being called up for the training camp for the game against Malaysia on November 18. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
