Kerala Blasters Confirm Their Participation In ISL 2026
The league was in limbo ever since the talks between Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL) and AIFF broke down, and the two could not decide on the renewal of the Master Rights Agreement (MRA) with AIFF to operate the Indian Super League. FSDL refused to start the 2025-26 edition at the usual time because the MRA was set to expire on December 8, 2025, midway through the league, and there was no clarity over its renewal.
The ISL club decision comes after extensive discussion with the All India Football Federation (AIFF) and associated stakeholders. The club also thanked the sports ministry for mediation in the matter and acknowledged the numerous questions raised over the issue.
