East Bengal on Saturday announced the signing of promising 24-year-old midfielder Mobashir Rahman, who was a part of League Shield winning side Jamshedpur FC. A product of Tata Football Academy, Rahman played as left-winger for the Jamshedpur franchise in the Indian Super League, making 53 appearances including 13 in their 2021-22 Shield-winning campaign. “East Bengal have signed Rahman on a pre-contract for a three-year deal,” the club said in a statement. In a rebuilding mode after their separation from Shree Cement Ltd, East Bengal are making most of the transfer window and learnt to have approached 23-year-old full-back Jerry Lalrinzuala and 25-year-old goalkeeper Vishal Kaith (both Chennaiyin FC). The red-and-gold had two disastrous ISL seasons playing under the aegis of ‘SC East Bengal’. In their ISL debut in 2020-21, they finished ninth out of 11 teams, and in the last season, they finished at the bottom. The club is currently in talks with Bangladeshi conglomerate Bashundhara Group to make a fresh foray into the ISL and an official announcement is likely in mid-May.
