"An internal source close to AIFF President Praful Patel has told Khel Now that the executive is not happy with the way ISL officials have treated him. Elected to give the runners-up award at the third season behind Nita Ambani, Praful Patel has been hurt and he has reportedly asked Kushal Das and co. to keep mum on any question about ISL and not to praise the cash-rich league. Thus, we infere that there would be no merger happening in the foreseeable future."
