The new Indian Super League (ISL) team from Hyderabad, which is set to replace FC Pune City, will not be able to take part in any of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) tournaments for the next two years.

The Wadhawan Group-owned club, riddled with financial issues, is set to wind up their first-team operations. As a result, their right to participation in the ISL has been transferred to a new team from Hyderabad.
