The All India Football Federation has articulated the exact definition of a marquee player, which as ratified by the AIFF executive committee is a must for each I-League club from the 2014-15 season onwards.
"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," the AIFF said in a statement on Friday.
The club can propose a player outside the described group with creditable record of representing a reputed international club in a reputed international league and should also have represented his senior national team. This is the actual defination by AIFF
On a brighter note... IT IS HAPPENING! And looking at Zicos comments I am actually really excited! To early to say right now but hopefully this move goes well and perhaps a move to a European league or a stay in Brazil is in the cards.

If clubs don't want to have a marquee ...they can play with 3 foreigner's instead
