Hyderbad: Former ISL champions, Hyderabad FC, has decided to move over from the City to Delhi “to develop a professionally run football club that reflects the values and aspirations of a new generation of fans in Delhi and across India.”
This was the message conveyed by the top brass of HFC to the All India Football Federation, according to an official of the Telangana Football Association.
‘It is disappointing for sure not to have a City-based team in the ISL. But again, these are things which are not in our control,” he informed ‘Telangana Today’.
The ISL franchise has informed that they possessed “significant land in New Delhi which they have earmarked for and envision as the centre of operations and the future home of our football team and football in Delhi”.
For the record, HFC finished 12th in the 13-team League with just four wins from 24 games with stand-by coach Shameel Chembakath taking care of the team for most of the 2024-25 season after the chief coach Thanboi Singto parted ways in December.
