Major English premier league club Liverpool plans to set up football academies in India in an initial bid to reach out to fans in Asia and in every continent.
Liverpool‘s International Football Academy chief Steve Turner said that Liverpool planned to have “footprints in every continent in the next three years.”
Liverpool will set up the first academy in New Delhi this October and already appointed former England and Liverpool midfielder Steve McMahon as the chief coach.
Liverpool’s next target is to set up similar academies in China, North America, South America and Southeast Asia.
