The All India Football Federation’s (AIFF) Technical Committee chaired by Shyam Thapa convened via video-conferencing on Friday afternoon.
The committee recommended that the Indian Super League (ISL) and I-League should follow the AFC guidelines and adhere to the 3+1 foreigner's rule from the 2021-2022 season.
The regulation suggests that a maximum of four overseas players, three foreigners of any nationality and one player from the AFC member nation, can be on the pitch at any given point of time.
However, in case AFC decides to change the above rule the same changes will be implemented in the domestic leagues.
