Team Profile
Pune is quickly gaining a reputation as the breeding ground for emerging talent in Indian football. The city has recently seen the establishment of new footballing academies, as well as tie-ups with renowned international clubs. This trend is set to continue in the Hero Indian Super League, where Wadhawan Group-owned FC Pune City have a partnership with Italian giants ACF Fiorentina.
The Fiorentina influence will be seen on the pitch. One of the few Italian clubs to buck the country’s tradition of strong, defensive football, Fiorentina will help implement a free-flowing, attacking playing style at FC Pune City. Pune have also brought in experienced Italian manager Franco Colomba to instil this footballing philosophy.
FC Pune City’s marquee player is David Trezeguet, one of two World Cup-winners to be participating in the ISL. The former Juventus and France striker will bring years of experience and attacking pedigree to the side. He and the rest of the FC Pune City team will be bringing exciting football to the Balewadi Stadium!
