NEW DELHI: The All India Football Federation (AIFF) is planning to organise the Hero I-League this season in Kolkata with the scheduled start tentatively fixed in mid-December.
"We are looking at a tentative date of mid-December onwards for kicking-off the Hero I-League. We are in talks with the Indian Football Association (Bengal), and also the Government of West Bengal to organise the League in Kolkata and its suburbs like the last edition," I-League CEO Sunando Dhar said during the AIFF League Committee's meeting held virtually on Saturday.
Dhar said the I-League this season will be a 13-team affair, with the number of matches to go up from the previous edition's 80 to 114. IANS
