Before the start of the season, East Bengal and Shree Cement's joint venture was terminated, and the club inked a new partnership with Emami as their principal investor in August. Stephen Constantine was appointed as the new head coach. East Bengal however, ended the league campaign with just six wins and thirteen defeats, finishing at the ninth position and with eliminations from group stages from both the Durand Cup and the Indian Super Cup. The club announced the departure of head coach Stephen Constantine at the end of the season due to poor performance.

Background edit

The partnership between investor group Shree Cement and East Bengal Club was terminated after the end of the 2021–22 Indian Super League season and they returned the sporting rights back to the club on 12 April 2022, after both the parties failed to reach an agreement and the final term sheet was not accepted and signed by the club officials.[1] The club officials, however, stated that East Bengal club shall continue to play in the Indian Super League, and shall be announcing their new investors within the next two weeks.[2] East Bengal Club was once again handed another transfer ban by AIFF for non-payment of dues for seven of their players.[3]

On 25 May, East Bengal announced the collaboration with Emami as the principal investors of the club.[4][5][6] The club confirmed their participation in the 2022-23 Indian Super League season with the arrival of the new investors.[7] On 18 July, after two months of contractual discussions between the club and the investor group, the club finally started the recruitment process for the new season after receiving a go-ahead from the investors.[8][9] On 22 July, the AIFF uplifted the transfer ban set on East Bengal and thus allowed the club to register their new signings for the season.[10] East Bengal appointed Santosh Trophy winning Kerala football team coach Bino George as the head coach of the East Bengal Reserves team, who participated in the Calcutta Football League, and also served as the assistant coach of the first team for the Indian Super League.[11][12] East Bengal also roped in former India national football team coach Stephen Constantine as the new head-coach of the team for the season.[13][14] On 2 August 2022, the formal launch of Emami East Bengal was held in Kolkata and the tie-up between the club and the investor group Emami was officially announced.[15] The club and the investor group formed a new company named "Emami East Bengal Pvt. Ltd." where the club would hold 23% share while 77% would be in the hands of Emami group.[16][17] The club officially rebranded themselves and played as 'East Bengal FC' in the season in the Indian Super League.[18]
