Churchill Brothers are set to feature in the upcoming Indian Super League (ISL) season, starting on September 4 after Tata Steel on Friday sold its entire stake in to the Goan side.
The Goan club is expected to pay the Rs 1.1 crore participation fee to the All India Football Federation (AIFF) by Friday’s deadline set for all participating ISL 2026-27 clubs. Jamshedpur FC had pulled out of the ISL and disbanded the first team on July 31, choosing to focus on grassroots football.
On Friday, Tata Steel transferred Jamshedpur FC’s Indian Super League sporting licence. The transfer of ownership for a nominal amount of Rs 100 includes the transfer of Jamshedpur FC’s 12 players and two coaches to the Goan club.
Churchill will take over the contracts of all Jamshedpur FC players and coaching staff with effect from September 1.
