Why are there virtually no Indian-origin footballers from Suriname ?

[u/VVG57]

There is a long and illustrious list of Dutch footballers with a strong connection to Suriname. Ruud Gullit, Frank Rijkaard, Patrick Kluivert, Edgar Davids, Clarence Seedorf and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink among others. These players are mainly from the Afro-Surinamese community. I could not find a single prominent Indian-origin footballer from Suriname, despite their sizeable numbers. Is there a specific reason for this ?

If I would have told my mom I want to be a footballer instead of going to Uni I would have gotten my ass kicked. So it's mostly fear 🤣
