The return of PSU clubs to a semi-professional/amateur league was also declared by the AIFF. In addition to giving foreign players in the I-League 2 and state divisions a two-year suspension, it would make it easier for football players on the lower rungs to find employment with PSUs. The initiatives will give local players a chance to play in pivotal positions all over the pitch. The choices were selected during the Friday meeting of the AIFF executive committee.
