East Bengal FC Head Coach: East Bengal FC have announced the signing of Moroccan national team forward Hamid Ahadad for the 2025-26 season, with an option to extend for an additional year.

Thrilled to embark on his journey with East Bengal FC, Ahadad said, “I have heard great things about this club. Joining a club with such a century-long legacy is an honour. I have played for Zamalek SC in the past, so I am well aware of the pressure and intensity associated with iconic derbies. Now I can’t wait to experience the Kolkata derby, which is one of the biggest derbies in Asia. I want to give my best for this club and its passionate fans, and win as many trophies as possible.”

A versatile attacker capable of playing as a centre-forward or winger, Ahadad has built an impressive career across top-tier African leagues. He joins East Bengal FC from Morocco’s Botola Pro Inwi side Maghreb de Fès, where he played 1,432 minutes across 19 matches, contributing 3 goals and 3 assists last season. In 162 Botola Pro Inwi matches overall, the 30-year-old has logged 45 goals and 14 assists.
