The Football Association of Montenegro will finance 95 percent of the investment, announced by the FSCG, in order to ensure the purchase of light bulbs, cables, poles and generators for power supply with these funds. The remaining five percent of the investment should be financed by the clubs, in cooperation with local governments, which should to secure the necessary permits and complete the preparatory works.

In addition to representatives of seven first league clubs, representatives of the second league, Beran and Mladost from Lješkopolje, who are also interested in the construction of reflectors, attended the meeting at the FSCG premises.
