Gill brothers headed to East Bengal.
Prabsukhan Gill and Gursimrat Singh Gill are both joining East Bengal.
East Bengal have agreed a Rs 1.2 crore transfer fee for Prabsukhan with Kerala Blasters and the brothers are travelling to Kolkata today for their medicals.
The YBK was built so that 1 Lakh+ people in this city can watch their very beloved "Derby" match together!
If in the name of "security" the administration backs off and sells less than half the capacity of this gigantic stadium, then that is SHAMEFUL!
Give our old YBK back!
Another public unveiling tomorrow at the East Bengal Ground for Anwar Ali? 😉
East Bengal fans, fill the EB Ground tomorrow for the match against Bhawanipore FC 💪🔴🟡
🚨CHEATERS🚨
MBSG have registered 33 players for the
#DurandCup
in the three matches while the maximum limit was 30.
They have clearly broken the rules and
@CarlesCuadrat
has rightly pointed out the fact yesterday after the match in the post match press conference.
#CheatMBSG
In April 2023, when a certain Spanish coach rejected us and you were brought in, a huge number of fans saw you as a second choice option.
But one thing is certain, no one could have understood the task like you did

The best summer transfer window by
#EastBengalFC
in 20 years and the best part, it's not finished yet!
😉🤞🤫
Vanlalpeka Guite has become one of the youngest scorers for
#EastBengalFC
having scored at 16 years 278 days on his debut today.
Bhaichung Bhutia still remains the youngest ever (16 years 109 days) when he scored on his debut on 2 April 1993 against Victoria Sporting.
Now that two days have passed, let's talk once again about that assist from
@NaoremMahesh
to Nandhakumar.
This pass only reminds me of that Kaká assist to Crespo in 2005 Istanbul UCL Final.
Absolute top quality!
🇯🇴 Hijazi Maher made his debut for the Jordan national team today as Jordan defeated North Korea 2—1 in a friendly match before their WCQ match against Kuwait and Palestine.
Congratulations Hijazi 💪

Nandhakumar Sekar was a machine throughout the match. No one would believe this was his first game of the season and that too coming in from an ankle injury.
He kept the left channel active throughout the match and put in some thorough defensive output.
Nice to have him back 💪
Ajad Saheem T — Remember the name, ladies and gentlemen!
We have a baller amongst ourselves. The 21 year old lad made his senior East Bengal debut today, coming in as a sub in the second half and displayed some amazing footwork.
Long way to go lad!

East Bengal wanted an Indian DM and they paid a record transfer fee to obtain Jeakson Singh and the reasons were evident yesterday. The inclusion of Jeakson unlocked Saúl Crespo to play his natural box to box role and what a treat it was to watch Saúl-Talal-Diamantakos combine 🔥
🔴🟡 Mousumi Murmu and Subrata Murmu became the first brother sister pair to play and score a goal for

Mousumi has 22 goals for East Bengal Women's to her name. Subrata scored on his debut yesterday for the club.

@eastbengal_fc
how about that?
The last time we did such was when Johnny Acosta was presented in 2018!
🇮🇳 Jeakson Singh was perhaps the best player on the pitch yesterday for the men in blue. He was stellar in his role as a defensive midfielder and showed why East Bengal paid a record transfer fee for his services!
It is now upto the 🔴🟡 coach to utilise him properly!

The East Bengal Ground now possess:

Sayan Banerjee (21) has been a revelation in the CFL this season:
👕 5 matches

🅰️ 2 assists
🏅3 man of the match awards
Unfortunate that he got an ankle injury in the last match but the young bengali lad is surely an upcoming sensation!
💪🟡🔴
🇯🇴 Hijazi Maher has now made 10 appearances for
#EastBengalFC
out of which he started in the last 9 matches and East Bengal is yet to suffer a defeat in these 9 matches.
3 man of the match awards in these 9 matches!
The Jordanian Wall!
Vishnu Puthiya Valappill surely is a cheat code!
This lad is too good for

Vishnu is rightfully now a permanent member of the ISL squad.

🇬🇷 Dimitrios Diamantakos
A debut every East Bengal fan wanted to witness and the Greek God has delivered in the single half he came on and salvaged the team to a victory with a goal and an assist to his name.
Expecting a start against Downtown Heroes and score again!
💪🔴🟡
🇮🇳 Mark Zothanpuia
What a debut from the lad in 🔴🟡 colours. He can find anyone inside the box with his pin point crosses and yesterday he should have had a hat-trick of assists had Saúl, Naorem, David finished the chances all served on the plate by Mark.
Keep growing 💪
Debjit Majumder appreciation post!
#EastBengalFC
perhaps have the best goalkeeper options among all ISL teams with two first choice goalkeepers in the squad along with a bunch of young ones.
Debjit was flawless yesterday and proved why he is a trusted man under the crossbar.

🇪🇸 Saúl Crespo was the pivot for the East Bengal team and what a goal he scored.
Saúl now has scored in all three consecutive matches this season and surely is the main man in our midfield. Him linking up with Talal is pivotal for all the success 🔴🟡 shall have this season!
The management has delivered big time by forming a formidable squad.
Now, it's the time for the fans to fill up the stands every matchday and support the team by becoming the 12th man from the stands with their voices!
🔴🟡 Fans, let's storm the gallery each matchday 💪
Edwin Sydney Vanspaul — The 31 year old might be on his way out of the club before the transfer window closes as he is not part of the plans for Carles Cuadrat. However, his cameo shall remain essential in the CFL campaign this season, controlling the midfield with Tanmay beside.
🇮🇳 Bino George has been the leader under whom the East Bengal reserve team and youth system revolution became one of the best in the country in just two years.
Don't ever think otherwise due to the below par performance of the boys in the NextGen Cup. We are on the right path.
#EastBengalFC
is now unbeaten in 11 matches since 25 November 2023 (6W, 5D) in top tier competitions. The last time East Bengal remained unbeaten for 11 or more matches was back in 2012/13 when they remained undefeated for 15 matches under Trevor Morgan.

East Bengal's young sensation, 16 year old Debojit Roy who is yet to feature in the CFL this season, has been training with the senior team regularly.
He should be getting some game time in the CFL super six.
🇮🇳 Nandhakumar Sekar has been selected as the East Bengal Club Player of the season for the 2023/24 season and would receive the award on 1 August 2024 in the Foundation Day event.
Nandhakumar Sekar in 23/24:

Anwar Ali is now 🔴🟡
What a way to announce the biggest signing of the season by East Bengal management!
Aman CK just got his second outing from the bench in the

Long way to go Aman ❤️
