<p>The Indian Super League has been a stage where a plethora of foreign talents has showcased skills and the latest import who is lighting up the fourth edition is Spanish striker Ferran Corominas.<br /><br />His mild demeanor off the pitch definitely isn't a fair reflection of what the 35-year-old is out in the middle -- striking fear into rival defenders, he has made his way to the top of the goal scoring charts.<br /><br />Netting 13 times in as many outings including two hat-tricks, Coro (as he's fondly called) has made scoring look like a walk in the park.<br /><br />But he plays down his form, shrugging it off as something he is expected to do.<br /><br />"When I come out on the field, I just think about what I need to do and try to get on with my work as much as possible. I try to enjoy myself on the field and keep myself out there. I don't think too much about what I need to be doing. The aim is obviously to help my team win and I just focus on the job I have been given to do," said Coro.<br /><br />Born in Catalonia, Coro spent a large chunk of his playing career at La Liga outfit Espanyol, netting in a 4-1 win over Real Zaragoza as the Catalan side went on to lift the 2006 Copa del Rey. <br /><br />After spending eight years at his boyhood club, Coro moved to Osasuna on loan after being sidelined by his former team-mate and then Espanyol manager Mauricio Pochettino. <br /><br />"There have been a lot of good moments - scoring in the match as Elche clinched promotion is a fond memory. But I am hoping winning ISL with Goa will be one of them when I am done playing," he voiced, insisting that he has been content with his career.<br /><br />Current Tottenham Hotspur boss Pochettino wasn't the only prominent name he has worked with as the frontman started a game for the Catalonia national side when they were coached by Dutch legend Johan Cruyff.<br /><br />"The team talk he had actually given was quite quick and that was the only match we played under him for Catalonia. It was a good moment as he was someone I have always looked up to as a reference. It's something I have always remembered positively," divulged the Spaniard of Cruyff's pre-match advice.<br /><br />An image football fans wouldn't forget in a hurry was when Andres Iniesta scored a 116th minute goal against the Netherlands in the 2010 World Cup final. What followed was Iniesta taking his jersey off to reveal a t-shirt with the message "Dani Jarque siempre con nosotros" (Daniel Jarque, always with us). Jarque was a former Espanyol defender who had succumbed to a heart attack the previous year.<br /><br />For Coro, Jarque was more than a friend and at the time of Jarque's demise, the two were room-mates.<br /><br />"Dani was not just someone I played with. He was my roommate and the guy with whom I spent throughout my Espanyol and Spain junior division teams. He was with me all the way through. It's a shame what happened to him but what I remember is the good memories I shared with him and he will be always my close friend," he said with a twinge of emotion.</p>
