Indian Super League (ISL) clubs and the All India Football Federation (AIFF) will approach the Supreme Court next week for a verdict on the future of India’s top flight.
The ISL has been on hold after Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL) and AIFF could not agree upon a Masters Right Agreement (MRA).
“A discussion was held between the legal representatives of the All India Football Federation and the Indian Super League clubs on Thursday. It has been agreed by all parties that the concerns of the ISL clubs pertaining to the delay in the commencement of the 2025-26 ISL season, and the hardship being felt by the players and other stakeholders will be conveyed to the Supreme Court next week, for its kind consideration,” the AIFF said in a statement.
Chennaiyin FC and Bengaluru FC are among top clubs to have temporarily suspended their first-team operations amid the uncertainty.
Officials from AIFF, ISL and FSDL met last week and will hold further talks next week over the resumption of the ISL, minutes released by the AIFF on Thursday revealed.
