Famous leagues like EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga are member of this association. It will give new global recognition to ISL and Indian football.

Another update is ISL is likely to be induct five substitutes in every for coming season. This is done after following some European leagues like EPL where the gap between two matches is reduced to end season as soon as possible after a long delay due to Covid-19 lockdown. The bench strength will be increased to nine most probably.

On 21st July AIFF league committee decided to both ISL and I-League in single venue system. As per source FSDL is looking opportunity for hosting ISL in Kerala or Goa and I-League is set be held in Kolkata. Both the leagues likely to start from November.
