: Not very long ago, T.K. Jesin was being paid Rs. 7000 a month for playing sevens football in Malappuram, Kerala football’s capital. He had not even played for the district then but when Bino George saw him in one of those tournaments, he was very impressed.
George, then the Kerala United FC coach, quickly signed him.
Now, after his recent Santosh Trophy heroics where he scored five goals in the semifinal against Karnataka after coming in as a substitute around the half-hour mark, offers are pouring in for the 22-year-old forward.
