An ardent Sunil Chhetri fan, Indian women's football team striker Sanju Yadav says the men's team skipper is an inspiration for a generation of players who took up the sport in the country.

Sanju is amongst the generation of Indian footballers who have spent a considerable part of their formative years watching and learning from Chhetri.

At a young age of 21, Sanju has gone on to become one of the regulars in the Indian women's national team.

"I am a big fan of Sunil Chhetri. I used to watch him play when I was younger, and I still try to watch his matches whenever I can, be it for club or for the country," said Sanju.

"The dedication with which he plays his football is equal to none."
