AIFF, FSDL To Hold Negotiations After Supreme Court Go-ahead Amid Crisis
The All India Football Federation: The All India Football Federation (AIFF) on Friday confirmed that it will hold “good faith negotiations” with Indian Super League (ISL) organisers Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL) in a bid to ensure the timely start of the upcoming season, after the Supreme Court granted permission to begin discussions on the Master Rights Agreement (MRA).
A two-judge SC bench allowed the AIFF and FSDL to start talks on the MRA, which is set to expire on December 8, 2025, and work towards an arrangement that would allow the ISL’s 2025–26 season to commence.
“Pursuant to the proceedings in the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India this afternoon, the AIFF will enter into good faith negotiations with Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL) in respect of the Master Rights Agreement that is set to expire on December 8, 2025,” said AIFF President Kalyan Chaubey in a statement.
