The JSW-owned Bengaluru FC has announced that it will hold back salaries for its first-team players and staff until the impasse is resolved. Additionally, several clubs have scaled back operations or pulled out of the ongoing Durand Cup, highlighting the financial strain they are under. Odisha FC has even suspended player contracts due to the uncertainty.
The AIFF and FSDL cannot proceed with discussions to renew the MRA, which expires in December, due to a Supreme Court order. The court has barred negotiations until it delivers a judgment in a case related to the AIFF's election process, which allegedly violated the National Sports Code in 2017. Furthermore, the National Sports Governance Bill, set to be introduced in the Parliament during the ongoing monsoon session, may have implications for the final SC-approved AIFF constitution.
The meeting in Delhi is crucial as it will provide an opportunity for the AIFF and the clubs to discuss potential solutions to the ongoing challenges. However, the timeline for the Supreme Court's judgment and the impact of the National Sports Governance Bill remain unclear, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the 2025-26 ISL season.
