Indian Super League Faces Financial Challenges

Indian Super League Faces Financial Challenges

The Indian Super League (ISL) is starting its new season on February 14, 2026, but there are some big problems.

The league had to delay its start because of money issues.

Now, the teams are asking players to take pay cuts of up to 25 percent because there are fewer games and less money.

The All India Football Federation (AIFF) is working to finalize the schedule and get everything ready.

They need the teams to confirm where they will play their home games.

The AIFF is also asking for help from the Asian Football Confederation to make some changes.

Everyone involved is trying to make sure the season goes smoothly, but it's not easy.
