East Bengal complete foreign signings quota for upcoming season

After defender Carlyle Deon Mitchell suffered a hamstring which put him out of the field for 2 months, East Bengal officials were on the hunt for defenders and have finally reached an agreement with Eduardo Ferreira and Kamo's brother Bajo for I-League 2017/18.

East Bengal already have secured the services of versatile Syrian midfielder Mahmoud Al Amna, former Mohun Bagan star Katsumi Yusa along with former Chennai City FC forward Charles De Souza. East Bengal also has retained the services of Willis Plaza, despite a disappointing I-League campaign in 2016-17.

The 2017-18 I-League kicks off next month on 9th November as per the tentative schedule proposed by All India Football Federation. Clubs have asked for a delayed start citing FIFA's international window and infrastructure issues which can result in the league kicking off on the 16th of November.
