East Bengal’s newly-appointed Spanish coach Oscar Bruzon has reportedly sought the release of Brazilian striker Cleiton Silva immediately! 

The red-and-gold brigade had undergone a rigorous three-hour training session on Sunday after their 2-0 defeat against Mohun Bagan Super Giants (MBSG) on Saturday at the Salt Lake Stadium. 

It is learned that Oscar Bruzon and the management had an intense meeting regarding changes in the squad. The coach reportedly wants Cleiton's replacement on a priority basis. 

At the same time, it is learned that Spanish striker Soul Crespo is also under the coach’s radar. Cleiton who played a crucial role in East Bengal's Super Cup victory last year has been struggling to regain form so far this season. 

Meanwhile, after receiving a harsh foul and carrying an injury on Saturday, Mark Zo had to undergo an MRI on Sunday. It is believed that the footballer is going to be ruled out of the field for the next four to five weeks. The MRI report will shortly make everything obvious.
