India has potential to play FIFA World Cup in future: Sol Campbel
India has enough potential to participate in a FIFA World Cup at some point in the future, former England star Sol Campbell said here on Thursday.
"Lots of people in India have a connection to football and FIFA have done a fantastic job here in giving them this tournament. I think that in the future, India would definitely be ready to host a FIFA World Cup. We're obviously in a cricket-dominated country, but it could be done -- the support would be there.
"There are over a billion people here, so I'm also sure that there's enough potential for India to participate at a World Cup at some point in the future," Campbell, one of the best defenders in the world during his playing days, said in an interview to FIFA.com.
