Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez is in India for a couple of days to attend several events in Kolkata. He landed in the city on Monday evening and was immediately mobbed by fans waiting outside the airport for the 2022 FIFA World Cup-winner.
Martinez headed to Mohun Bagan for the inauguration of the Pele, Maradona and Sobers gate at the iconic football club.
Kolkata is known for being a football-crazy city but it's equally famous for the delicious food and various cuisines available for the people.
And Martinez will get to taste authentic Bengali cuisine at the JW Marriott Hotel where he will be staying for the entire duration of his trip.
Here's a look at the massive spread that will be dished out for the Golden Glove winner at last year's World Cup.
