The 2020-’21 Indian Super League season has been pushed back due to the Covid-19 pandemic and is likely to start in November with the Football Sports Development Limited looking at two venues to host the competition.
However, the delay to the season hasn’t stopped clubs from building their squads for the upcoming campaign with a host of clubs being busy in the transfer market.
