Francisco Bruto Da Costa: East Bengal should be the number one club

Francisco Bruto Da Costa, the new East Bengal assistant coach, is all set to be a part of the Indian Super League (ISL) again after the Kolkata giants roped in a new investor in Shree Cement Limited.

The club's entry into the ISL is nothing but a formality at this point and Francisco feels the development is a positive development on a whole for the Indian football ecosystem.

"East Bengal - the fans that they have, their history and achievements speak for themselves. For them, coming in the ISL, they deserve it. It is good for East Bengal and for the game," the 38-year-old told Goal.
