With Stadium Unavailable, Gokulam Kerala Unable To Participate In Durand Cup 2024
Mohun Bagan Super Giants: Gokulam Kerala FC, one of the two prominent football clubs of Kerala, the other being Kerala Blasters FC, will not be participating in this year’s Durand Cup beginning July 27. The name of Gokulam Kerala, which won the Durand Cup in the year 2019 defeating Mohun Bagan, now Mohun Bagan Super Giants, at the Yuba Bharati Krirangan stadium, Salt Lake here, did not feature in the six groups of the tournament announced recently.
The reason, according to a club official, is that the club is yet to start its pre-season camp pending an issue relating to playing ground with the Kozhikode Corporation.
“We haven’t started our pre-season camp owing to the ground issue”, the official informed IANS. “By the second week of August, we will be starting our pre-season camp as we have not yet resolved our issue regarding playing ground with the Kozhikode Municipal Corporation," the official said.
