Certainly this is the first time in my career, and I’m not sure the club has ever done this before. I’m very proud that we took this step because we want to break the chain. If you lose, it doesn’t mean you have to throw away something you did thinking you’re going to be a champion; especially when it could be useful to somebody else, Chhetri said.
With the four stars above the crest and the year 2022-23, 150 T-shirts are now going to Bengaluru communities. Over the next week, players from BFC Soccer Schools, the club’s programs, and club staff and fans will participate in donating these jerseys to nursing homes, orphanages and hospitals.
I’m a big fan of sustainability, and I’m really glad we took this step. These are t-shirts that we had to wear, but that’s okay. They say champions on them, and anyone can be a champion. Those who wear these jerseys today are champions, said goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu.
Bengaluru FC is scheduled to fly to Kozhikode for its first Super Bowl game of 2023, which begins Saturday with a match against Srinidhi Deccan FC.
Tuchel said the 34-year-old Cameroonian striker will not travel to Freiburg and will undergo treatment. The coach added that time is running out for him to recover before Tuesday’s match against City.
Before this season, Chupo-Moting was known as a backup to Robert Lewandowski, but after the Polish forward left for Barcelona in July, he took on an independent role.
He has 17 goals in 28 games for Bayern this season and four goals in six Champions League games, including one against Paris Saint-Germain in the round of 16.
He took the field after 64 minutes against Freiburg (2-1) in Tuesday’s German Cup quarterfinal.
Serge Gnabry, Sadio Mane and Thomas Müller are candidates to replace Choupo-Moting before Tuchel’s first European game since replacing Julian Nagelsmann last month.
Also out against Freiburg will be 17-year-old striker Mathis Tell, who has played 21 times for Bayern this season, mostly on the bench. Defender Dajot Upamecano misses the game due to disqualification after receiving too many yellow cards. Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and defender Lucas Hernandez are still absent due to injuries.
