This goes in line with the club's vision to be not only a club of India, but a club with international ambitions."

"I am really excited and looking forward to interacting with the fans in Delhi. Delhi Dynamos is a team that has been consistent in their performances over the years and hopefully this time we can win the ISL together. The club and I share the same view, to help promote the sport and engage more female audience into watching and playing the game, and hopefully together we can bring a change," Jacqueline Fernandez said.
