Raul Gonzalez is my favourite footballer: Mercedes-Benz India's Roland Folger
It’s no secret that Germans love their football, and Mercedes-Benz India MD, Roland Folger is no different. ETPanache recently caught up with him at the Cooperage stadium in Mumbai, where he was playing football with underprivileged children from an NGO. “I started playing when I was six. In Germany, we play a lot of sport—handball, soccer, tennis, badminton.

Now I am old and rusty, but there was a time when I was very good at the game,” said Folger with a laugh. And who is his favourite footballer? “Raul. Since I am German, you would think I would choose someone from the World Cup winning team, but I love Raul’s dedication towards globalising sports,” he says. Seems like a shared passion.
