This short, highly energetic and entertaining package is the USP of Premier Futsal.”

Premier Futsal, the T20 version of football, will be played in Mumbai and Bengaluru, while Dubai is likely to host the semifinals and final.

Rana Daggubati, who has been associated with many leagues including kabaddi and boxing, says, “I have always been fascinated with sports since my childhood and would love to be part of any sports whenever there’s an opportnity. When I heard about the poosibility of being the face of Telugu Tigers in Premier Futsal, I took it as a pride. What more, with someone like Deco as a marquee player in the team; we are sure to entertain the crowd with some exciting action. Also, I believe my fans and sports lovers will turn out in large numbers and support us. Moreover, it will keep me on my toes and give me an opportunity to spread the sportspmanship spirit.”
