The fresh HeroISL, Hindustan's very own football league is going to launch from 12-10, and while the nation highly anticipates for this soccer league, here is most of you should know about it. Awaking Indian football out of hibernation The Indian Super League was founded in 2013 after seeing that a lot of Indians are wild about soccer, but sadly, have no national football league with International allure to see. The ISL aims to turn the table. It will have 8 franchise clubs, owned from people and companies across the country. The competition will launch in October and end in December. The 8 teams that will compete in this competition are: · Atletico de Kolkata, assisted by Antonio Lopez Habas, with Spain as the foreign draft. · Chennai Titans, coached by Marco Materazzi with Italy as the foreign draft. · Delhi Dynamos FC, trained by Harm van Veldhoven with Netherlands as the foreign draft. · FC Goa, assisted by, Zico with Brazil as the foreign draft. · Kerala Blasters FC, practiced by David James with England as the foreign draft. · Mumbai City FC, practiced by Peter Reid with England as the foreign draft. · North East United FC, trained by Ricki Herbert with New Zealand as the foreign draft. · FC Pune City, coached by Franco Colomba with Italy as the foreign draft. While building their squads, each team will have to aqcuire: · At least 7 foreigners, out of which 2 will be from the squad and 5 will be from the foreign player draft; · One marquee player, which in the words of AIFF is "A foreign recruit who has represented his country in any of the continental championships like the European Championship, Copa America, African Nations Cup, Asian Cup, or FIFA World Cup will be called a marquee player;" and · fourteen Hindustani domestic players, four of which have to be local players from the city the club belongs to. Important Who's who in the HeroISL The competition is owned by Reliance Industries Ltd, Star India Pvt. Ltd. and IMG Worldwide Inc.
