No delay in ISL start as FSDL rejects AIFF president Kalyan Chaubey’s deferral plea

The Hindu  

The Indian Super League, organised by the Football Sports Development Limited will start on September 21, as the apex body rejected the plea of Kalyan Chaubey, the president of the All India Football Federation, to defer the starting date by 10 days. “All stakeholders have formally agreed to the schedule’s dates and structure, which incorporates necessary breaks to accommodate FIFA windows and breaks for the AFC Asian Cup. Given the packed football calendar, the season schedule has been designed to consider all these factors leaving no scope for postponement of the tournament at this stage.” Earlier, Chaubey had reportedly requested FSDL to delay the start of the league by 10 days, with the Indian men’s football team in action in the Asian Games this month. All players from the Asian Games squad play in the Indian Super League and if the ISL teams choose to keep their players early on in the season, India may just be forced to withdraw without a proper squad.
