Even after numerous discussions East Bengal officials have not yet chosen their coach for the next season. In fact many names have come forward but nothing has been finalized yet. 

It is learned that there has been a long discussion with Sarjio Lobera on Saturday and Emami Management is presuming to settle the matter within next couple of days. The club has also designed a Plan-B regarding the matter. According to sources close to the club, if budget becomes a constraint then as per Plan B Carlos Kuadrate may be finalized within Wednesday.

On the other hand Emami official Mr Debabrata Mukherjee witnessed the preparatory match with Chennaiyin FC on Sunday. He has reportedly made a target to recruit four Indian footballers from Chennaiyin FC. But those players are already in contract with the team. So East Bengal if wants to rope in them, will have to pay transfer fees.
