Sudeva FC who are set to make I League debut in 2020-21 season announced on Wednesday the appointment of Chencho Dorji as their head coach.

Day after the signing declared I League.org had a chat with Bhutanese coach where dorji stated that his team is ready to ‘surprise’ all.

First Bhutanese coach in Indian football stated, It is a privilege for me to be the first coach in the I-League from my country.  It is a great opportunity and a big responsibility. I hope to do well with the support of the whole team. I have previously worked as the Head Coach of the Bhutan youth National teams and have many friends in India. I have been following Indian football very closely. It is a significant challenge for me and I am ready for it.

Sudeva will be fielding an all-Indian team this season, speaking about that, Chencho said,  It was my idea to have all Indian players in the team and no foreigners, and I am glad the management was supportive of it. I have been following Indian football for a long time and I know the ability the Indian players possess. It is vital that we give them the opportunity to play and see how they do. Surely there will be pressure but giving a platform to young Indian talent is one of our most important objectives.
