East Bengal was active at the end of the previous season, roping in French attacking midfielder Madih Talal from Punjab.[1] The club also roped in four Indian players  - David Lalhlansanga, Provat Lakra, Debjit Majumder, and Mark Zothanpuia to bolster the ranks.[2] The club also got Premier 1 club licensing for the 2024 - 25 season, announced by the AIFF.[3] The club also extended the contract of Mohammad Rakip and signed Nishu Kumar on permanent basis. The club also roped in the Golden Boot winner of the 2023–24 Indian Super League  - Dimitrios Diamantakos on a two-year contract from Kerala Blasters. The club also announced that Cleiton Silva would continue as the captain of the side and Naorem Mahesh Singh would be the vice captain for the team.[4] East Bengal also roped in the Indian national team midfielder Jeakson Singh on a record breaking transfer amount from Kerala Blasters on a four-year deal.[5] On 12 August 2024, after a long saga, East Bengal signed Indian national team defender Anwar Ali from Delhi FC on a 5-year permanent deal, making him one of the highest paid Indian footballers.[6]

Anwar Ali Controversy

The controversial transfer of Anwar Ali from Mohun Bagan Super Giant to Delhi FC and thereafter to East Bengal was appealed and heard by the AIFF Players Status Committee (PSC) on 3 August 2024 and stated that the termination of contract by Anwar Ali with Mohun Bagan Super Giant was 'unjust'.[7] [8] On 10 August, all three parties were again summoned and heard by the PSC and AIFF PSC provided the No Objection Certificate (NOC), at his own risk, for purposes of player registration and registration on the AIFF CRS (Central Registration System).[9] On 12 August, Anwar officially completed his transfer from Delhi to East Bengal.[6] On 10 September, the AIFF PSC announced their verdict on the case where Anwar Ali was handed a suspension of four months, with Mohun Bagan Super Giant to receive a compensation of from Anwar Ali, East Bengal and Delhi and both East Bengal and Delhi have been handed a two-window transfer ban.[10] [11] [12] On 12 September, East Bengal filed a writ petition in Delhi High Court asking for a stay order on the decision of the AIFF PSC.[13] On 13 September, Justice Sanjeev Narula directed AIFF PSC to withdraw its order of September 10 and asked for a fresh hearing of the case on 14 September. After hearing the matter, the committee would pass a detailed order.[14] On 19 September, the AIFF PSC officially handed Anwar Ali the NOC allowing him to play for East Bengal in the Indian Super League until the next meeting on the issue, to be held on 22 October.[15]

Hence, IFA granted all three points to East Bengal from the match.[81] However, after some controversy regarding the allotment of full points and Diamond Harbour threatening to pull out of the tournament, the IFA on 28 October announced that only a monetary fine would be imposed on Mohammedan and no points would be awarded or deducted from the disputed match.[82]
