O'Donnell denies taking up India U-17 job

All India Football Federation's Technical Director Scott O'Donnell, on Saturday, categorically said that he's not taking up any job with the AIFF and is leaving for home next month.

Australian O'Donnell, who is serving a three-month notice period to step down from his current job, denied that he may take over as head coach of India Under-17 World Cup team with the AIFF set to sack incumbent Nicolai Adam against whom the players have revolted.

"My three-month notice period to step down as technical director ends next month and I am leaving for home when it (notice period) ends.

My five-year association with Indian football is ending mid next month," O'Donnell, whose notice period began in mid November, said on Saturday.

Meanwhile, the Under-17 World Cup football team's training camp, which is to resume from February 1 in Goa, is likely to be delayed.
