“All the fans, the coaches, the players and the staff has put so much effort to build this Club. We owe them more than just reaching semi-finals. Rohan Sharma said. The Roaring Lions again neglected to achieve the last in the third ISL season in the wake of losing against Kerala Blasters in the semi-last. Be that as it may, several DD players including the top objective scorer Marcelinho, Malouda and Kean Lewis stood out as truly newsworthy with strong performances. Describing the season as “self-contradicting”, Sharma said it was a success from specialized perspective however not from business perspective.
“I am thankful to everyone for sending their wishes. The response from everyone shows we built something more than a club, we built a family,” Prashant said.
“Delhi Dynamos was my life. My best wishes are always with the club. But the way the things are, I am a bit worried about the direction in which it might be going,” he further said.
Prashant, who joined Dynamos in 2015, assumed a key part in bringing several marquee players/coaches including Roberto Carlos and Florent Malouda to the club. He also set up youth institute, several grassroot programs and infrastructure for ladies’ football. Be that as it may, Prashant was not able change over all the administrative work into a Cup triumph. “We are taking the club to a whole new level through partnerships and synergies. We’ve already started holding meetings and discussions with an aim to achieve our targets for the coaches, team, sponsorship and Club associations. We are adding fresh faces and are looking forward to announcing the coming of our new CEO in the following days,” he said.
“From a technical point of view it was a very good season. From a commercial perspective, it hasn’t been great as things were not organised well, the performance in getting sponsorship was really poor and there was little transparency in the day-to-day affairs,” he said.
