AN Indian footballer at Worcester Sixth Form College has realised his dream by signing professionally in his homeland.
Ishan Rawlley Singh, 18, joins Indian Premier Division club Mahindra United in Mumbai next month after impressing on trial at Christmas.
Mahindra United finished third in the league last season and also won the Asian Football Confederation Cup against clubs from across Asia.
In addition, they landed the Asian EUFA Cup, the President's Cup and an international club tournament held in the Maldives.
Ishan arrived from India to complete his 'A' levels and further develop his football education by joining Worcester Sixth Form College last September.
He has been a member of the College's successful football academy, where he has played for the first team and also gained coaching awards.
Seven of Ishan's new Mahindra team-mates are full Indian internationals.
