The U-17 lads take on a new journey and will represent the nation at the AFC U-19 Championships.

Luis Norton de Matos, Head Coach of the India U-19 National Team has summoned 29 probables for the preparatory camp being held in the Capital for the forthcoming AFC U-19 Qualifiers to be held in Saudi Arabia early next month.

India who have been clubbed with hosts Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Turkmenistan in Group D play their first match against Saudi Arabia on November 4 followed by matches against Yemen and Turkmenistan on November 6 and 8 respectively.

In a previous article, Khel Now revealed that sources close to the developments said that the U-17 boys will be playing the AFC U-19 championships in Saudi Arabia come the month of November. This tournament will be extremely beneficial for the boys after impressing the crowd in the U-17 World cup, the team would look forward to stepping up their performances in this tournament. Some of the stand-out players from the U-17 side such as Dheeraj Singh, Jeakson Singh, Amarjit KiyamAnwar Ali would love to carry over their current form to really establish a name for themselves in the footballing scene in India. 

The probable list of 29 has players from the AIFF U-19 Academy as well as the Indian U-17 World Cup squad which played in the FIFA U-17 World Cup India 2017.
