Experienced goalkeeper Debjit Majumder has joined East Bengal FC on a two-year contract that will be active until the end of the 2025-26 season. This will be Majumder’s third stint with the Red & Gold Brigade after he previously represented the club in the 2011-12 and the 2020-21 seasons.
He had a fantastic season in 2023-24 registering 5 clean sheets across 19 ISL, 1 Kalinga Super Cup and 2 Durand Cup matches. He played a key part in helping Chennaiyin FC reach the playoffs in 2023-24 ISL.
Head Coach Carles Cuadrat said, “Debjit has been a highly experienced goalkeeper in the ISL and the I-League. I know him from my early years in India, around 2016, and since then he has been performing with solidity and a great personality. His work-rate will add more value to our goalkeeping department and strengthen our defensive levels.”
Excited to reunite with East Bengal FC, Majumder said, “It’s a homecoming for me because East Bengal was the first big club of my career. I would like to thank Coach Cuadrat and the Emami East Bengal management for showing faith in me.” He added, “I’ve seen and I understand the emotions associated with this great club. I would like to tell the fans that I’ll leave no stone unturned to take this club to greater heights. Our fans are our biggest inspiration.”
