The All India Football Federation (AIFF) Disciplinary Committee has summoned Jamshedpur FC player Gourav Mukhi for a personal hearing at Football House on Saturday, November 24.
In the interest of fair play, the AIFF Disciplinary Committee, based on prima facie seriousness of the issue, has put the player under ‘suspension’ from participation in any AIFF events until a final decision is reached.
After scoring a goal against Bengaluru FC, it was reported that Gaurav Mukhi had become the youngest goalscorer at 16 in the history of the Indian Super League.
But on social media it was pointed out that Gaurav Mukhi had been suspended as a Jharkhand U-15 player due to overage in 2015 which means that his current documentation as a 16 year old were false.
