Once hailed as the `next Sunil Chhetri`, Jeje Lalpekhlua, whose career was curtailed by persistent knee injuries, on Thursday urged aspiring forwards to never take any injury lightly.

After teaming up with Chhetri in 2011, the mercurial Mizoram forward grew strength to strength and spearheaded Indian attack with Chhetri in a number of matches and won SAFF Championship together in 2011 and 2015 before being sidelined by recurring knee injuries.
