Nesta:

“A few years ago I thought I’d finish my career at Milan,” he told FourFourTwo. “But as time went by, the prospect of moving to North America and try a different type of football interested me.

“It was Marco Di Vaio who convinced me to come to Montreal. I spoke with him and then followed their matches.

“When I thought about it, I had no doubts about relocating and moving my family over here.

“I was interested to see the type of football that was being played, so I spoke with [New York Red Bulls striker Thierry] Henry and he was enthusiastic about the MLS.

“I knew that it was going to be a very physical League – if you’re not in shape here, you’re in trouble. And I’m sure in the future it can be a major championship.

“The future? I’d like to coach Real Madrid one day [laughs]. I want to stay in Canada for a while yet, and I’ll finish my badges next year.

“Where will I coach? I don’t know yet. Let’s see.”

Im in touch with the people at IMG due to professional commitments and Im not allowed to share the names. But be sure this will be a special thing for Indian football. Lot of Milan fans will see ex players in action.
Apparently it has not been confirmed yet that Nesta will play for Atletico de Kolkata, but he is going to play in the league for sure.

Ex Milan players? Nesta, Crespo, who else?

Edit: Sorry, didn't read the "professional commitment" part.

Out for a walk.
Where are you Indians getting this news from? I can't find a single article on Nesta to Indian football anywhere :conf::conf::conf:

This was talked about a few months back, too...

Because of Nesta, i prefer to make a goal saving sliding tackle, than score a goal.

Local rumours. I think clubs will reveal their foreign players in two weeks or so. Then we'll know.

Indian Super League is not a long season-long thing. Starts in October and finishes in December. So most people can take breaks.
