Indian Super League side Bengaluru has stopped player salaries amid ‘uncertainty’ around domestic football season.
Indian Super League (ISL) side Bengaluru FC have stopped paying the salaries of its first team’s players and staff amid growing uncertainty over the future of the top-flight league.
In a statement, the 2018-19 ISL champions said they had taken the decision “in view of the uncertainty surrounding the future of the Indian Super League season”.
“Running and sustaining a football club in India has always been an uphill climb, one that we have put everything aside and made, season after season,” Bengaluru added.
“However, the lack of clarity on the League’s future leaves us with no choice but to take this step.”
