No East Bengal! ISL to stick with 10 teams for 2020-21 season

In a meeting with all stakeholders, the organisers made it clear that there are no plans to increase the number of participating teams...

The organisers of the Indian Super League (ISL), Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL), in a meeting with club representatives on Friday afternoon made it clear that they are not looking to add any more teams for the upcoming edition of the league, Goal has learnt.

This might be an indication that they are not willing to float a tender for a new franchise.

This comes as a blow for Kolkata giants East Bengal who have been making noise about their intention to play the ISL in the coming season.
