The much awaited roadmap of Indian football devised by the All India Football Federation (AIFF) was finally shared with all the stakeholders at the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) house in Kuala Lumpur on Monday.
According to the new roadmap, the Indian Super League (ISL) winners will get an AFC Champions League (ACL) playoff spot from this season while the I-League winners will be given the AFC Cup playoff slot.
The ISL, which will assume its position as the top-tier league of Indian football, will be open for the I-League winners to join from the 2022-23 season onwards and it will be an open league with promotion and relegation from the 2024-25 season.
