3 of the ISL clubs are secretly funded by IMG-R and as for Bangalore and Goa...the ink isn't dry on the Joint Ventures...so they are also hoping to avoid a similar cock-up like Pune.
All will sign a certain number if foreigners from the draft...IMG-R is trying to force the marquees on the clubs with thier ridiculous wages...but aome are trying to resist.
Freddie Ljunberg arrives in India next month...so we'll know where he ends up then
Wadhawan Group is based in Mumbai as well as Mumbai being a major player for India might be the reasons. Although I am sure they could have found some luxury hotel in Pune to do the launch. Also what is wrong with the picture other than the fact that the logo looks like the white castle logo?
as of now the ISL circus seems to be creaking along towards its first explosive debut....
ISL league schedule window - check TV broadcaster - check Stadium availability - check Stadium facilities for club and players - in process?? ISL team created - Check ISL team players selected - in process ISL coaches and staff - in process Newspaper Articles promotions - check Hope ISL somehow comes together successfully this season - work in progress
Guess IMG have covered everything or they want us to believe so?
Former Orlando Pirates goalkeeper, Deshi Bhaktawer, has accepted the role of goalkeeper coach of Atletico de Kolkata. Ofentse Nato and Fikru Lemessa would also be making the trip alongside Bhaktawer and will be turning out for Kolkata during their campaign.
Posing with their brand new logo are Gaurav Modwel, CEO, FC Pune City and from ACF Fiorentina, Sandro Mencucci, CEO and Leonardo Limatola, Head - Planning & Control are the three guys in FC Pune FC pic. Looks like some Museum with some old Royalty pics in background.
