Internet Desk: Atletico De Kolkata signs young prodigy from Manipur, Bidyananda Singh Ningthoujam. He is also marked as a wonder kid from Manipur for his football skills.
One of the most promising young defensive midfielder of India U20 Bidyananda Singh Ningthoujam. Indian “Keisuke Honda” as coined by Barcelona coaches during the training camp at aspire academy in Doha.
Young Bidyananda became one of only two Indian players to play in the Aspire Academy’s All Star Team. He marked a dream debut by scoring the opening goal of a 3-1 win over the mighty Dutch side, AFC Ajax.
The fact that the Indian Honda took up a place in the All Star Team in favour of a Japanese player was an incredibly ironic coincidence. The trial ended very well for Bidyananda Singh as he was awarded the player of the camp by Barcelona coaches.
