"It's always great to come back to Goa. The fans here are so passionate about football and crazy for FC Goa. Coming back here always gives me hope that a sports culture can truly be built in this country. The houses, the cars are adorned with the club colours. It's truly brilliant," Kohli said in a statement.

A crowd of nearly 3,000 was in attendance as the Gaurs launched their new jersey and an annual campaign named 'Be Goa'. The campaign gives strength to the ideology of FC Goa's footballing philosophy which inculcates a winning spirit, a statement said.

Last season's runners-up FC Goa will begin their ISL 2019-20 campaign at home against Chennaiyin FC on October 23.

The ISL 2019-20 season begins on October 20 with Kerala Blasters and ATK playing the season opener.
