What did the AIFF reveal about Xavi Hernandez’s application for the India football coach position?
The email application was not genuineThe All India Football Federation (AIFF) confirmed that the email application attributed to World Cup-winning Spanish legend Xavi Hernandez for the India head coach position was found to be not genuine. The AIFF had initially reported receiving applications from Xavi and Pep Guardiola, but later clarified that authenticity could not be verified and the emails were likely forged. The Technical Committee, led by IM Vijayan, has since shortlisted three candidates, including Khalid Jamil, Stephen Constantine, and Stefan Tarkovic. While Xavi’s involvement generated excitement, the AIFF emphasized a rigorous selection process that reviewed ten candidates before narrowing it down. This incident highlights the challenges in verifying high-profile applications and the importance of due diligence in appointments.
