On 11 May 2017, Indian Super League organisers invited bids for new teams (Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Cuttack, Durgapur, Hyderabad, Jamshedpur, Kolkata, Ranchi, and Siliguri) in order to expand the league in the upcoming season.[4] The bidding ended on 25 May 2017 and the external validator, appointed by the league, started scrutinizing the bids.[5] Two weeks later, on 12 June, it was officially announced that Bengaluru FC and Tata Steel had won the bids for the new teams Bengaluru and Jamshedpur respectively.[6]

After winning the bid, Tata announced on 14 July 2017 that the inaugural head coach for the new Jamshedpur club would be Steve Coppell,[7] who led the Kerala Blasters to the final in the previous ISL season.[8] The club's official name, Jamshedpur FC, and logo were revealed nine days later, on 23 July, before the 2017–18 ISL Players Draft.[9] Being a brand new club, Jamshedpur FC had the first pick during the players draft.
