Durand Cup, Asia’s oldest football tournament, is back with its 134th Edition.

For the first time, the Durand Cup is being hosted in as many as five states, with Manipur’s capital, Imphal, making a comeback after a two-year gap. Kokrajhar in Assam will extend their status as Durand Cup hosts for the third consecutive year while Jamshedpur in Jharkhand and Shillong in Meghalaya were added as hosts last year. The century-old tournament shifted its home base to Kolkata – the Mecca of Indian Football, and the capital of West Bengal, from Delhi back in 2019, and, will also continue to hold that status for a sixth consecutive edition.
