The 2021-22 season is once again set to be played entirely in Goa due to COVID-19 pandemic.[4][5] The league committee also announced that the number of foreign players that can be registered and fielded is to be reduced, with four foreign players in the playing eleven and a maximum of six can be registered, one of which should be from an Asian nation.[6]
On 8 June, East Bengal Club was handed a transfer ban by FIFA for non-payment of dues for former player Johnny Acosta.[7][8] The club was also uncertain to participate in the 2020–21 season of Indian Super League as the row between the club and their prime investor group was yet to resolve which threatened their participation in any footballing activity for the season.[9][10] The AIFF and the FSDL had asked the club authorities to sort out the mess between the club and the investor group soon.[11] East Bengal coach Robbie Fowler too expressed his dissatisfaction over the issue and slammed the club officials for their delay in signing the final termsheet.[12][13] On 25 June, the club announced that they have cleared off the dues for Johnny Acosta and hence expect the transfer ban to be uplifted by FIFA soon.[14][15] On 5 July, FIFA officially uplifted the transfer ban on East Bengal,[16] however, the club was on the verge of facing another transfer ban due to non-payment of dues for three more former players: Rakshit Dagar, Pintu Mahata and Abhash Thapa.[16][17] On 6 August, The All India Football Federation handed another transfer ban to East Bengal due to the non-payment of dues for the three aforementioned players.[18][19] On 26 August, the transfer ban was lifted by the AIFF after SC East Bengal cleared the dues for the three players.[20]
Due to the tussle between the club and the investor group, East Bengal lost out on a few of their star performers from last season including Bright Enobakhare, Debjit Majumder, Sarthak Golui, Narayan Das and Matti Steinmann.[21] The fans put up a huge protest in front of the club premises on 21 July demanding an immediate solution for the situation.[22][23][24][25] On 25 August, the long-running tussle between the club and the investor group finally came to a solution after a mediatory intervention by the Chief minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee, and it was announced that the club will be participating in the 2021–22 Indian Super League with Shree Cement staying on as the investors.[26][27][28][29]

East Bengal launched its kits for the season on 6 November 2021. The traditional red and gold fields, vertically split into two halves returned after four seasons as the home kit. The away kit is white with red and gold trim on the collar, sleeves, and bottom of the shirt.

East Bengal began their campaign against Jamshedpur at the Tilak Maidan Stadium on 21 November with a 1–1 draw, with Franjo Prce putting East Bengal ahead in the seventeenth minute only for Peter Hartley to equalise in the injury time of the first half to share points.[140] East Bengal faced ATK Mohun Bagan FC next in the Kolkata Derby at the Tilak Maidan Stadium on 27 November and suffered a 0–3 defeat with three first-half goals from Roy Krishna, Manvir Singh and Liston Colaco.[141] Coach Manolo Diaz admitted that there is a big gap in quality between the two teams.[142] East Bengal faced Odisha next on 30 November at the Tilak Maidan and suffered a 6–4 defeat. Darren Sidoel had put East Bengal ahead in the 13th minute but Odisha rallied from behind with Héctor Rodas scoring twice and Javier Hernández scoring directly from the corner-kick to take a 3–1 lead at half time. Aridai Cabrera scored two more in the second half while Isak Vanlalruatfela scored another as Odisha scored six goals against East Bengal in consecutive matches. Thongkhosiem Haokip scored one and Daniel Chima Chukwu scored twice as East Bengal reduced the margin late in the game.[143] East Bengal coach Manolo Diaz expressed his frustrations after the game as he claimed: "We don't have enough quality to play matches in the Indian Super League".[144]
East Bengal faced Chennaiyin in their fourth match on 3 December and managed a 0–0 goalless draw against the two-time champions. Hira Mondal was adjudged the man-of-the-match for his excellent defensive display to secure one point for the team.[145][146] On 7 December, East Bengal went down 3–4 against Goa at the Tilak Maidan Stadium.
