AGENCIES, DUBAI: With a bunch of fresh recruits guided by a new coach, two-time Indian Super League (ISL) champions ATK are on the verge of completing a three-week gruelling pre-season in Dubai.
They are slated to return to Kolkata to acclimatise to the home conditions on November 4th. But before their return, star striker Robbie Keane played a hilarious prank on Carl Baker while the team was on a sightseeing tour. The prank was posted online by none other than Baker himself!
After joining ATK, Carl Baker said: “It feels great to sign for a champion side like ATK. I am eager to experience Indian football which is going through some exciting times with ISL gaining popularity. I have heard about the fans who are passionate about this beautiful game and hopefully I can give them enough reasons to rejoice by the end of the season.”
It was a huge decision for the 34-year-old attacking midfielder who has negotiated himself out of his contract at Fratton Park where he was a year into a two-year deal, having helped Pompey secure the League Two title last season and promotion to League One. .
Baker is enjoying and getting comfortable around the ATK teammates very quickly as it can be clearly seen in his tweets!
