ATK Mohun Bagan FC is an Indian professional football club based in Kolkata, West Bengal. The club competes in the Indian Super League. The club, which was formed as a merger between the football section of multi-sport club Mohun Bagan AC and the ATK FC, began to play from the 2020–21 season as ATK Mohun Bagan FC. The principal owner of Mohun Bagan is Sanjiv Goenka led consortium called Kolkata Games & Sports with Mohun Bagan AC serving as the co-owner. ATK Mohun Bagan continues to share a fierce rivalry, known as the Boro Match, with Mohun Bagan's long-time city rival East Bengal. It is also known as The Mariners and Green and Maroon Brigade. The Sailing Boat of Mohun Bagan and its iconic green and maroon colours were retained in the club's logo by the newly merged consortium. The sailboat signifies Mohun Bagan's place of establishment: North Calcutta, on the banks of the Ganges. In fact, Calcutta was the capital during the late nineteenth century and a prime trade centre of British India, where the primary mode of transportation was through the waterways. The colours of the crest have its connection to the representation of the Sundarbans in the earliest crest design of Mohun Bagan.
