    IANS Interview: We Need More Indian Strikers In ISL And I-League, Says AIFF President Kalyan Chaubey

    All India Football Federation: After getting elected as the president of the All India Football Federation (AIFF) in September 2022, ex-India goalkeeper Kalyan Chaubey’s tenure has seen the federation steer through a heady mix of success stories and downfalls.

    Be it the men’s team winning three back-to-back trophies in 2023, a brief return to sub-100 FIFA rankings for the first time since 2018, or the promotion of women’s football in the country -- a lot has happened since the Chaubey-led new committee took charge.

    Chaubey’s tenure also saw a string of poor performances in the Asian Games and the AFC Asian Cup, followed by the recent loss to 158th-ranked Afghanistan in Round 2 of the World Cup qualifiers, leading to the AIFF Technical Committee expressing dissatisfaction over the team’s progress under head coach Igor Stimac.
