That Hardi Boy
Grilled International promoted Busy Bees star
Hardi bin Besar to the senior squad today, one day removed from his seventeenth birthday. Described by more than a few scouts as perhaps the Bees' best prospect since its founding, Hardi has done little to dismiss those plaudits.
The epitome of a flair player with a preference for dropping off to the wings to find space, Hardi is close to the template of the universal modern midfielder. "He's one in a thousand." Bees scout Adinath Pant, who discovered Hardi lighting it up in a local youth tourney, declared proudly.
Hardi will inherit the Number Seventeen shirt only just vacated by Shailendra Chatterjee, and
Tajit bin Mohd has confirmed that he will have a major part to play in the main team. "He'll start against Aquino Team in Manila tomorrow, and we will all see what he can do."
