Carles Cuadrat resigned as head coach of East Bengal on Monday. The club announced in an official statement.

Bino George will serve as the interim Head Coach as the Red and Gold searches for someone to replace the Spaniard as the club’s permanent head coach.

The club said it will make further announcements in due course.

Cuadrat ended East Bengal’s 12-year drought, guiding the red-and-gold brigade to the Super Cup title in January earlier this year.

He also led the team to a runners-up finish in last year’s Durand Cup.

The Spaniard was under pressure as East Bengal started its Indian Super League with three consecutive defeats against Bengaluru FC, Kerala Blasters, and FC Goa. This is the Red and Golds' worst start to an ISL campaign since its inaugural season in 2020-21, where it finished ninth.

After East Bengal’s last loss against FC Goa, which came in a home match, loud chants of ‘Go Back Carles!’ were aimed at the Spanish tactician from the stands at the Salt Lake Stadium.

East Bengal was the biggest spender in the transfer market by splashing Rs. 5.8 crore to acquire the services of Jeakson Singh and Anwar Ali. It also brought in prized overseas stars Dimitrios Diamantakos, Madih Talal, and Hector Yuste.
