New Delhi: With All India Football Federation president Praful Patel agreeing to meet them, the aggrieved I-League clubs have shown “eagerness” to participate in the Super Cup, AIFF general secretary Kushal Das said Friday.
Busy with work related to the upcoming general elections, Patel has agreed to meet the agitating clubs between April 10-15. “Yes, the clubs have been sent a mail with a tentative time-line for a meeting with the AIFF president.
They all are on board and have shown eagerness to play the Super Cup, which shall go on as per the original schedule,” Das told PTI. “Their request of rescheduling by the clubs cannot be accepted as that’s against the tournament regulations but all the other matches go on as per schedule,” he added.
Mohun Bagan had requested to reschedule the Super Cup qualification matches after a few clubs refused to turn up for their respective games.
On Wednesday, six I-League clubs, including new champions Chennai City FC, had expressed their willingness to compete in the Super Cup if the national federation addresses their concerns about the impending restructuring of the domestic football leagues.
On Thursday, Das wrote to the clubs saying the AIFF chief has agreed to give them time. (PTI)
