The Kolkata club, which competes in the country’s top division, is thought to be in jeopardy.

“Yes, we have spoken to them and others as well,” Ganguly, the head of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, said at a press conference on Tuesday.

It will take another 10 to 12 days to figure out who the entity is.”

“No no, as an owner,” Ganguly replied when asked if United would be coming as an investor.

Ganguly is assisting the Glazer family with the transaction.

East Bengal had a dismal season in the ISL in 2021/2022, winning only one of their 20 regular season games.

After winning the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé is expected to be announced as a new signing by Real Madrid the following week.

In February, the 25-year-old international athlete made his choice. He can now be regarded as a new Real player because every document has been completed, sealed, and signed.

As per media reports, Kylian Mbappé joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer. “.. I wanted to announce to you all that it’s my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game as Parc des Princes on Sunday,” Mbappe said in a video statement on X.

“It’s a lot of emotions. (For) many years I had the chance and great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world which allowed me to travel here,” Mbappe added.

“It’s hard and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that I will leave the country, France, the league and the Championship. But I think, I needed this, a new challenge after seven years.”
