Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has returned to management in India.
Fowler has been appointed head coach of SC East Bengal on a two-year contract.
The 45-year-old last managed A-League side Brisbane Roar and guided them to fourth place before the season was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Australian club announced his exit in late June.
Fowler also has coaching experience in Thailand, when he was player-coach Muangthong United in the 2011-12 season, and worked at Liverpool's academy after hanging up his boots.
The club said they had also appointed former Everton and Manchester City midfielder Tony Grant as Fowler's assistant as part of a team of seven overseas coaches.
Fowler scored 183 goals in 369 matches for Liverpool in two spells. He also played for Manchester City and Leeds United and was capped 26 times by England.
