Cesar Farias is the only name on this list who isn’t associated with Indian football for quite some time now.

After guiding the NorthEast United FC to a fifth-place finish in the 2015 Indian Super League season, he shifted his base to Latin America.

After managerial stints in Paraguay and Bolivia, he finally settled down as the caretaker manager of the Bolivian national football team.

He coached the Venezuelan national team for quite some time and steered them to a first ever semi-final in the Copa America during the 2011 edition in Argentina. Now, he has applied for the head coach of the Indian national football team.

He is the only gaffer in this list apart from Antonio Habas, who has had an experience of coaching a national side, which is really handy.

On the other hand, Cesar has been pretty successful at the International level. Finally, he has spent a season in the country, which makes him a front runner for the job.
