The Indian Super League (ISL) tournament will see two new teams from next season with the introduction of franchises from Jamshedpur and Bangalore. The Jamshedpur franchise is owned by Tata Steel Limited while the Jindal South West (JSW) group owns the Bangalore team.
"The ISL, in its fourth edition, will witness an expanded five-month module with number of participating clubs increasing to 10 from its original eight founding member city clubs," Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL), the organisers of the ISL, said in a statement.
"The inclusion of two new clubs came through the 'Invitation To Bid' tender process floated by FSDL last month. An independent panel along with consulting firm EY evaluated the bids to present its report to the panel, in the presence of All India Football Federation (AIFF) General Secretary Kushal Das," the statement said.
