East Bengal club’s top brass is reportedly talking to two SAFF Cuppers for the next season. One of the two footballers is Chencho Gyeltshen, the number-nine who is called ‘Ronaldo of Bhutan’. 

Central defender Ananta Tamang of the Nepal national team is the other one. The club is reportedly in talks with a Brazilian footballer also. 

Meanwhile, former Mohun Bagan SG coach Juan Ferrando is the first choice of Kerala Blasters to replace Ivan Vukomanovic. They keep the backup option ready as well in case the deal doesn't go through. 

Brendan Hamil of MBSG has been offered as well. Kerala Blasters have made a revised offer for Dimitrios Diamantakos, the top scorer in the ISL. Two more clubs are in the race to rope in this striker.

Fahad Temuri of Delhi FC has also been in the discussions among a few ISL clubs for the next season. It is learned that Mohammedan Sporting, the new entrant in the ISL and Punjab FC has been in a race to rope in this young forward who had an impressive show in the recently-concluded I-league.
