AIFF DECIDED TO BID FOR CLUB WORLD CUP 2018 and 2019
Earlier AIFF was Bidding for 2015 and 2016 but now We will be bidding for later version as AIFF wants to focus on U-17 world cup 2017
Mr. Patel informed the Committee that he had a Meeting with FIFA President Mr. Joseph S Blatter; FIFA Secretary General Mr. Jerome Valcke and Mr. Thierry Regenass, Director Member Associations and Development Vision, FIFA; at the FIFA Headquarters in Zurich where he discussed to put a bid for India to host the FIFA World Club Cup in 2017 and also in 2018.
“We have to put in a bid to host it for two consecutive editions of the Championship. If we are successful, we would have FIFA Tournaments in India in 2017, 2018 and 2019,” he added. “We will come to know the outcome in December 2014 and if it happens, it will be a big achievement for Indian Football,” he said.
Kashmir is a fantastic decision..youth from the valley are well built and football can be a good future prospect for them..kudos to AIFF..Manjeri to Kashmir
Plus Kashmir had good crowds during the Santosh Trophy, they also good crowds when Mohun Bagan played against Kashmir team. Although fed cup may not get as much crowds, but it is good to give games to places are troubled due to multiple reasons. Like the decision.
So AIFF to implement "Marquee" rule and intimidate the clubs soon about it's definition..
East Bengal are very much against this as they have already signed up their "Marquee" Ranti Martins for 1.5 crores and he won't fall in AIFF definition..Expect them to search for some loopholes in the definition and bring in a Tahitian..
Carlos Hernandez's agent can also expect some calls
@rudra ; i have written nothing wrong here looks like you dont care about the safety of the players are you waiting for something to happen or just having the view that everything will be fine till something happens
