Gist of JFC article : It's not yet confirmed by the club . But the rumour mills are suggesting that there's a huge possibility of it.

In other unconfirmed news, East Bengal is looking to terminate the contracts of Al Amna (after the CFL) and Katsumi Yusa after consultation with QUESS, though a final decision is yet to be taken...according to the stakeholders, these players would not be in keeping with the standard of footballers playing in the ISL and hence the club is looking for better players, even ex-World Cuppers.
Bringing in 'world class' players is good but the clubs should remember that past experiences in the ISL have shown that signing aging, semi-retired World Cuppers have not always proved beneficial to the clubs, neither have they contributed substantially to Indian football...rather, signing comparatively younger players like Mendoza and Marcelinho who did not have the aura of stars before they arrived here and who were hungry to succeed in India reaped rich dividends for the clubs
