Mutu shortlisted for Indian Super League


By on 6:49 AM


William Gallas, who won back-to-back English Premier League titles with Chelsea FC, and controversial Romanian striker Adrian Mutu have been cleared to play in the Indian Super League.

The Indian Super League -- which will kick off on September 19 -- is turning out to be a magnet for some famous footballers, many of them, though, at the fag end of their hugely-successful careers. Franchisees must obtain prior permission from the ISL Player Committee, and some of the names made "available" by agents have made franchisees smack their lips.

"Several agents have been contacting us with some famous footballers. They keep mailing their biodatas," a senior official connected with the Goa franchise told TOI.

Not all players whose agents have been vigorously pursuing the Indian football market have found favour with organizers of the ISL. Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler, as reported earlier by TOI, has not been cleared as a marquee player, but according to sources, two franchisees have got the nod to sign William Gallas and Adrian Mutu as their marquee signing for the opening season of ISL.
