Chhetri said that he never dreamt of the life he is currently living. So he gives his 100 per cent every day in order to improve daily.
"The love that I get playing football unbelievable it's something that I have never dreamt of even. So when I am there and everyone wants me to do better so it comes to me that I want to give everything that I have got in me," said Chhetri.
"I am living alife which I have never ever dreamt of the only thing I do is I don't let even a day go by that I don't give my 100 per cent," he added. (ANI)
