AFC U-17 tournament qualifiers in Cambodia on 19 October. Bangladesh is already practicing in BKSP ahead of this tournament. Australian expatriate Arham Islam will join this exercise on October 10.

Western United are the top tier club in Australian football. Bangladeshi expatriate footballer Arham played at the under-18 level in this club’s academy. Although a right winger, this youngster can also play as a right back. Arham’s father Ariful Islam wants his son to play for Bangladesh. Based on that interest, he contacted Bauff. Buff’s technical department receives Arham’s videos and necessary information.

Saiful Bari Titu, technical director of BAFF, is the coach of U-17 team. He will take Arham’s trial. If Arham performs satisfactorily, he will tour Cambodia for the Bangladesh U-17 team. Buff has registered Arham with AFC. If the qualification is proved in the trial, there should be no problem in playing for Bangladesh. Arham was born in Bangladesh and had a passport. As the old passport expired, the new passport was issued only on trial basis. Arham is coming to Bangladesh at the expense of the entire family.

Bangladesh national football team captain Jamal Bhuiyan is a resident of Denmark. Reliable defender Tariq Kazi grew up in Finland.
