The second flight of Indian football, the I-League, is set to resume on the 21st of February!

The 2026-26 season of I-League will be played in a two-stage format, akin to the 2020/21 and 2021/22 campaigns.

The league stage will feature all the clubs playing out a single-leg round-robin format before the top 6 teams secure their berth in the championship round, with the bottom six moving into the relegation round.

The clubs have also proposed that the league be rebranded as the ‘Indian Football League’, pending approval from the All India Football Federation.
