Baljit Sahni (born 12 January 1987) is an Indian former professional footballer who played as a forward.[1]
Career
JCT
Sahni had played for JCT for 5 years. In the 2009–10 season he scored the first hat trick of the season against Shillong Lajong.[2] On 11 November 2009 however Sahni was seriously injured in a bike accident along with teammate Sunil Kumar Thakur in Margao, Goa while the team were preparing for an upcoming match against Salgaocar in the I-League.[3] As a result of the accident Sahni required 25 stitches and he fractured his shin.[3] At this point in the season Sahni was in top form with six goals in the opening seven matches.[3] However, on 28 January 2010 Sahni played in his first game since the accident, coming on as a second-half substitute and he even scored a goal as JCT Mills defeated Sporting Goa 2–0.[4]
East Bengal
In 2010 Sahni signed with I-League giants East Bengal.[5]
Retirement and financial struggle
Sahni faced monetary issues while playing, so he decided to retire early at the age of 31. Sahni said, "In 2019 I left for Canada. I was not getting paid enough. I had to earn my bread and butter and I also have a family to take care of. I retired from football because after football there is a life too and that is hard but you have to accept that life and take it on the chin."[6]
