Not enough chances from Mumbai side
Harmeet Singh believes that he made his debut for Mumbai in the year 2009 but did not get enough chances to prove himself. For this reason, today he had to decide to go to America. He feels that he was not even given a full season to prove himself in his career. Till the year 2017, I was waiting for an opportunity to play for Mumbai. In a career spanning over a decade, I could play only 9 matches. I didn’t even get a chance to fail. I didn’t get a chance to prove myself. Will regret this.
