After exciting summer signings, the Red and Gold Brigade could be set for a bit of a renaissance, with expectations held high.
East Bengal FC flicked on the winning switch midway through the last season, going five matches unbeaten, beforing winning the Kalinga Super Cup, ending a 12-year wait.
However, they failed to surf through the momentum wave, with injuries and departures.
They also missed out on a top-six finish, despite staying in the race till the last game week.
Since their debut in the 2020-21 ISL season, East Bengal FC have been disappointing despite showing quite a bit of promise.
They have had three ninth-place finishes and a 11th place ending in four seasons.
2020-21 : 9th place
2021-22: 11th place
2022-23: 9th place
2023-24: 9th place
However, there is new hope this season. With exciting signings, the management has strengthened all areas, putting up a balanced squad for the season ahead.
