Days before the country woke up to the threat of coronavirus, East Bengal were learnt to have made quite a headway towards playing in the ISL. Apart from seeking help from chief minister Mamata Banerjee, a potential investor was also understood to have shown interest in helping them realize the dream, post-Quess separation, in this respect.
Although nobody when football action will return in the country, East Bengal want to keep themselves all fired up and ready to grab any opportunity in the changed perspective.
“We have already started building a strong team,” senior club official Debabrata Sarkar said.
When asked if the club’s recent team-building spree has anything to do with the steps towards featuring in the country’s top league, Sarkar didn’t divulge much.
“We are keeping many options open. We are battle ready for any possibility. At the same time, we strongly believe that if Mohun Bagan can play in the ISL, we can do so too,” he added.
It's all a gimmick by Nitu & gang. East Bengal will play in I league, you can see that clearly by the choice of players and also that no coach has been finalized.
