Srinagar Oct 26: If I would not have been a footballer then I would have been in the Army,” says Davinder Singh, who has joined Real Kashmir Football Club (RKFC) to play in I-League 2022-2023.
Hailing from Punjab, Davinder Singh, 27, started playing football at a young age. “Since childhood, I have been interested in joining the Army. Then a summer football camp was held in our village and I also went there to have some meals as I belonged from a poor family. Seeing many boys playing there, it motivated me to play football then I did not look behind,” he said, who plays at right back position.
