Indian Super League (ISL) franchise, Delhi Dynamos FC, could soon ink a tie-up with Spanish La Liga giants, Real Madrid. The partnership could be the country’s biggest in football, surpassing even Atletico de Kolkata’s tie up with Atletico Madrid.“Our goal is to make Delhi a football club from just a franchise,” said Delhi’s newly-appointed president Prashant Agarwal on Thursday. Agarwal, however, admitted that the partnership is not yet final. “They have expressed interest and have said that they want to explore ideas. There could also be another big Spanish club, perhaps Villareal or Valencia, involved in the partnership. This tieup will put something big in place. Everything is likely to change this time around.” Delhi finished fifth in the table in the inaugural edition and did not qualify for the semifinals.The partnership will be on the lines of the one Atletico de Kolkata has with Atletico Madrid. Squad members will get the opportunity to train and use facilities available at the Santiago Bernabeu, Real’s home ground. In addition, there could also be an exchange of players and coaching staff.If the deal goes through, it is understood that Delhi will terminate its existing partnership with Dutch club, Feyenoord Rotterdam. That partnership has been hit with a feud between the team’s marquee player Alessandro del Piero and coach Harm van Veldhoven.The Juventus legend, who was ISL’s biggest purchase at Rs 10.8 crore, was barely deployed by Veldhoven. Unhappy with the way he was treated by the coach, Del Piero also had a verbal argument with the team manager. There were reports of Del Piero pushing the manager away during a team practice session.Del Piero hinted that he may not return to India: “I will remember India and have made a lot of memories here.” But a new president taking over the club could mean that they will have a fresh start going into the second edition of the league. A partnership with Real Madrid would be the best way forward for them.
