New Delhi, Nov 13 (UNI) Earlier this year, talismanic Indian women's national team forward Bala Devi became the first woman player from the country to sign a professional contract with a European club as she signed for Rangers Women's FC, who play in the Scottish Women's Premier League.
According to national team skipper Ashalata Devi, the move will 'inspire' the young generation of women footballers in India and have a 'huge impact'.
In a chat with AIFF TV, she said, "Bala di playing for Rangers is a very big opportunity as it shows us the way to play abroad and for the next generation too.
