As promised, here goes the latest developments. Long post warning. Those who just want the gist of the matter, it was a 8 points agenda - 5 agreed, delivered & resolved, 2 agreed but yet to be delivered & 1 the club has requested for reconsideration. #EastBengalFC#IndianFootball
Let's first take a look at the 5 points that are now resolved:
1. Under no circumstances #EastBengal can drag Shree Cement to court on any of the points covered in the agreement. The club has to give legal affidavit on bond paper. Both are on the same page here. #IndianFootball

The curious case of Jaime Santos Colado: an #IndianFootball version of Ozil-Arsenal & Bale-Real saga in the making?
Has a valid contract till 2021. New owners no longer interested. Mediation by #EastBengal for a mutual exit failed. He is adamant to see through the contract. 1/2
It's worth noting that #EastBengal had signed indemnity bond during its seperation from Quess, so the club can't terminate his contract unilaterally. Shree Cement has already lined up his replacement & now seeking legal discourse to negotiate a painstaking exit for Colado. 2/3
