Legendary footballer and former India national team captain Bruno Coutinho championed All India Football Federation’s (AIFF) decision to reduce the number of foreign players in Indian football.
The Executive Committee of the Indian FA has already implemented the ‘3+1’ foreigners rule in the I-League from the upcoming 2020-21 season.
The AIFF president Praful Patel has also urged the Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL) to come up with a plan for foreigners in the next couple of months so that the four foreigners rule can be implemented in the Indian Super League (ISL) from the 2021-22 season.
