Indian goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu will feature in Norwegian club Stabaeks squad for their Europa League qualifying encounter against Welsh Premier League side Connahs Quay in Rhyl, Wales on Thursday evening.This will make him the first Indian to feature in a continental competition, a little more than a month after he became the first Indian to start a first team match in a top-division league of Europe, when he started in goal for Stabaek in a 5-0 away win against IK Start in the Norwegian Tippeligaen.Sandhu is not the first Indian footballer to have played abroad, though. By all available records, the first Indian to play football in Europe was Mohammad Salim, who was signed by Scottish club Celtic for their squad in 1936, and featured in a few matches for the first eleven, but in exhibition games, before returning to India to continue a stellar career with Mohammedan Sporting club of Kolkata.In more recent years, Bhaichung Bhutia, Sunil Chhetri and Romeo Fernandes have all played in countries as far and wide as England, Malaysia, USA, Portugal as well as Brazil, though none of them were able to break into the first team at any of the clubs they signed with.In addition, global football has seen several footballers of Indian origin play at the highest level of competition, most notably former French World Cupper Vikash Dhorasoo and former Newcastle United striker Michael Chopra.Sandhu, who normally competes for the reserve goalkeepers slot in Stabaek behind Mande Sayouba of Ivory Coast, also came in for praise from Indias head coach Stephen Constantine in an interview with ESPN.
