East Bengal History

🇪🇸 Nacho Monsalve made his debut for East Bengal FC yesterday against CISF Protectors as he came in as a substitute in the second half.

He hardly had to do anything defensively yesterday and we can only hope he gets to his top fitness soon.

What a strike it was!!!

When you're big, you're big ❤️

🚨 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐩 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢 — The 24-year-old Bengali left back was once again excellent in his second match for the 🔴🟡.

He played as a centre-back against Mohun Bagan Super Giant and now back to his original position as a left-back in the second match against CISF Protectors in the Durand Cup and he is showing promise to become the first choice name in the starting eleven throughout the season.

Sandip Mandi played under 🇪🇸 Antonio Habas for the last two seasons at Inter Kashi and we can see why our head coach trusts him as his leading left sided defender.

Way to go Sandip ❤️

🚨 𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐊 𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐤𝐤𝐚𝐫𝐚 — The 26-year-old Keralite forward joined East Bengal FC five seasons back in 2022, and has been prolific in the Calcutta Football League ever since joining, helping the club win the title twice in 2024 and 2025.

However, he was always overlooked from the senior ISL squad, making a few appearances from the bench but failed to grab the opportunity to make his place permanent.

However, this season, it seems coach 🇪🇸 Antonio Lopez Habas has found a liking in Jesin TK and even prevented him from playing the CFL last match, so that he can fully focus on the Durand Cup and it paid off, with Jesin scoring twice playing as the number 9 of the team, leading the attack.

We wish Jesin all the luck and hope he makes it big this season as we all know how much potential Jesin has and his prowess in front of the goal is already well celebrated by East Bengal fans.

🚨 𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐊 — 2️⃣ Goals

Jesin TK got only his second start for East Bengal FC senior team today and grabbed his opportunity to the fullest.

Jesin was pivotal to the opening goal that East Bengal scored, then in the second half he scored two great goals. If only David had too been selfless and passed to Jesin, he too would have had a hat-trick himself!
