Real Kashmir FC has withdrawn from the AIFF Super Cup 2025-26 after failing to secure visas for its foreign players. The Srinagar club, who were supposed to play in Group A, withdrew just days before the start of the tournament.
The All India Football Federation (AIFF) has confirmed that Dempo SC will take over Real Kashmir’s place in the group, which also includes heavyweights Chennaiyin FC, Mohun Bagan Super Giant and East Bengal FC.
Dempo will start his campaign against East Bengal on October 25.
