The committee likely to grant their request for more time to take meaningful action...
East Bengal have requested for more time to address the matter of unpaid salary to their Indian players, after the players approached the All India Football Federation (AIFF) for redressal, Goal has learnt.
The club informed the AIFF's Player Status Committee that they have already finalised an investor in cement giants Shree Cement Limited and are working to resolve the issue at the earliest.
The committee is set to convene shortly and is likely to afford the club some breathing space in this matter.
