East Bengal have roped in the services of a physical trainer from England for the coming football season.

Peter McKnight, who was associated with the Women's FA team of the UK, arrived in Kolkata on Thursday a six-week contract with the red and gold brigade.

''East Bengal has a good set up. I'll try to make the best of the time I have,'' he told newspersons.

Mcknight is the second overseas physical trainer recruited by East Bengal.

Last year, the club had appointed the South African Kevin Jackson to the post.
