      There are so many Indians who watch different leagues worldwide. For instance, millions of Indians watch the English Premier League, Spanish La Liga, and the Euro Cup. The reasons range from plain enthusiasm to getting profit from every round - like sports betting and crypto-related activities. If you also want to do it, you can check out Prime Gambling Reviews to see the quality of every site you come across. When you think about it, there are time zones that these enthusiasts adjust to, to watch every round until the finals. But many Indians also have a great inclination to play the sport. For soccer news tips and updates, you can visit Soccer Reports. Goa is an Indian state considered to comprise the highest number of football fans. They even have a Christiano Ronaldo statue! However, they take their enthusiasm more locally, supporting the country’s own Indian football league through patronising and promoting it throughout the country. But the challenge is hard. India’s teenagers who happen to consume football frequently prefer and follow football clubs like Manchester United, Liverpool, Barcelona, and so on. The future for India’s football clubs are looking bleak - but is it too early to admit a losing proposition? In this article, we will tackle how exactly Indian football clubs earn money, and how support from their people make an impact on how they fare in the sport. Running a football club in India It’s never easy to run a football club in India. In fact, investments consistently outperform the returns, which drive investors away from investing in India’s football clubs. You might think that the Indian Soccer League adds a lot of revenue to build more spaces to the country’s sport, but that’s not the case. Top Indian football clubs, as well as any I-League or ISL club, do not make a profit at any time throughout the calendar year. Many clubs have closed or drastically reduced their activities over the last ten years. The club's patron Churchill Alemao, who also happens to be the current President of the Goa Football Association, weathered every storm that tried to destroy the club. Over the past three decades of spearheading opportunities for the club, he mentions how hard it is to not stay stagnant when there are no opportunities given to the team. However, he still remembers the ultimate goal for Goa FC - to have India play in the FIFA World Cup. He ensured that football never died, despite the fact that the club has spent crores of rupees on running it. Unfortunately, various clubs across the country have established and closed owing to a variety of factors. Administrative and financial concerns at the highest levels are blamed for the majority of the reasons. For one, hese clubs vary from the very top of Indian football to the very bottom, and they are well-known in every Indian district. There is a dearth of information at the lower levels in terms of running a football club and sustaining it in order to achieve higher levels. Academies across the country might use the same approach. The economics of Indian football clubs Most Indian football clubs spend 60 to 75 percent of its budget on the team, 15 percent on youth development like academies, and the 10 percent for broadcast initiatives. It’s already a blessing if the team gets sponsors. The most frequent sponsors of ISL India are Coca-Cola, Nivea, and Musli Power, which adds a lot of revenue for the clubs. There’s also revenue garnered from ticket and merchandise sales. However, these only give a share to clubs, since there are also other stakeholders (i.e. investors, venue holders) who also gain from the overall revenue. Promotional activities and However, revenue from ticket sales, merchandise sales and other promotional activities contribute in minuscule proportion to the clubs’ coffers. Even prize money of all the domestic tournaments in India, if combined together, cannot compensate for the huge amount spent by these clubs. But the harsh reality is that I-League clubs receive no compensation from TV presence. Unlike in all other major worldwide leagues, where revenue gained from broadcast arrangements is divided with the clubs, television revenue goes directly to the All India Football Federation (AIFF) and is second only to sponsorship in terms of income for a club. In fact, the majority of I-league clubs rely on significant sponsors to keep their teams afloat during the season. Conclusion In conclusion, the money from the central pool, which amounts to roughly Rs. 13 crore per person, is practically offset by the annual franchise fee, which ranges from Rs. 12 crore to Rs 16 crore per person, depending on their base. In the lack of television revenue, ISL teams rely on sponsorship, ticket sales, retail sales, and prize money to supplement their income, which does not cover the high costs of running the club.

    After more than three months of hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Premier League is finally making a comeback for the fans of the English top flight football, after the UK Government gave the green light. The 2019-20 season was officially confirmed to resume from 17th June, with 9 matchdays left to be played, in a behind closed doors format. To successfully restart the season PL has termed the mission as ‘Project Restart’, under which they have been constantly testing the players and club staffs, in addition to many other sanitary and safety regulations in action.

    Till date, Premier League has performed a total of nine rounds of testing. The first round of test was conducted on 17-18 May, where a total of 748 players and staffs were tested, and six positive cases were detected from three clubs. As of today, 8,687 tests have been conducted, and 16 were tested positive. What is the procedure after a player from any PL side is confirmed positive of novel Coronavirus? Let’s find out below.

    To ensure its Project Restart plan, Premier League invested in a £4 million deal with the Hong Kong-based biotechnology company Prenetics for a total of 40,000 Coronavirus testing kits.

    80 kits are provided to each club per week, to test 40 players and staffs twice under seven days. Tests are done at drive through testing stations, and the swab samples collected from the back of nose and throat are sent for testing to The Doctors Laboratory, and results are delivered under two days.

    In case of a player or staff tests positive and bears the symptoms, they are to self isolate for for a week. After seven days, they are tested again. In case a person shows symptoms but tests negative, they still follow the same procedure of a second testing session after a week.

    “If a player tests positive, it’s only him and his family who need to isolate, not anybody else This will need to be looked at again when contact training resumes, however,” said Dr Mark Gillett, Premier League’s medical advisor.

    However in case of a positive result, PL has impassive on putting the whole squad of a club in a quarantine period of 14 days. Only the positive player or staff is quarantined away.

    “With regards to our back-to-training protocols, if a player tests positive, providing that player has been been socially distanced as anticipated in these protocols, that player would be isolated for a period but there would be no need for the rest of the group to be, because they’ve been socially distanced.” Premier League chief executive Richard Masters had said earlier.

    While its not possible to follow the social distancing guidelines as players have resumed contact training, the players are taking proper medical guidance during their training drills.

    “It does depend on what sort of contact because obviously you’re trying to ensure the players keep themselves safe even during that contact training situation and that will have to be dealt with on a case-by-case basis,” Masters added.

    Other than testing 40 individuals twice each week, all PL clubs also do regular temperature checks of their players and staffs, in addition to daily medical surveys.

    Premier League returned on Wednesday with a goalless draw between Aston Villa and Sheffield United. Manchester United drew 1-all in their face off against Spurs atTottenham Hotspur Stadium today. Liverpool is leading the league table with 82 points, followed by Manchester City in second with 60 points.
