Taking Hindustani football out of hibernation
The ISL was initiated in 2013 after seeing that many Indians are passionate about football, but unfortunately, have no national football league with International attention to watch. The ISL aims to turn this around.

Mumbai City FC, practiced by Peter Reid with England as the foreign draft.
North East United FC, practiced by Ricki Herbert with New Zealand as the foreign draft.
FC Pune City, trained by Franco Colomba with Italy as the foreign draft.
While building their clubs, each club will have to sign:
At least seven foreigners, out of which 2 will be from the outfit 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 homegrown players, four of which have to be local players from the city the team belongs to.
