French footballer Dhorasoo to visit city next week

PANJIM: Vikash Dhorasoo, former French footballer and member of the French World Cup runners-up team of 2006 will visit the capital city on April 3. 

Mauritian-French Dhorasoo is of Indian origin and is touring Southern India, the land of his ancestors.

Accompanying Dhorasoo, is Vincent Bernière, writer, journalist and publisher. Bernière has published “J’Perds Pas La Boule” an illustrated biography dedicated to Vikash Dhorasoo focusing on his footballing career and his Telugu family background.

The French duo are both bullish about India’s footballing future. While Dhorasoo says, “India is the future continent of football,” Berniere opines, “Soon, football in India will go through an exceptional growth.”

 Dhorasoo will interact with Brahmanand Sankhwalkar, chairman, Goa Football Development Council (GFDC) and the FC Goa under-14 girls team at the Alliance Francaise at Fontainhas.
