Imrul Hasan Takes the Helm: New Leadership in Bangladesh Football Premier League Committee
A year ago, Kazi Salahuddin, the president of the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF), took charge as the chairman of the Premier League committee after a restructuring. However, his tenure was short-lived as the former star footballer resigned from the committee after one year. Imrul Hasan, another vice-president of BAFF, has now been appointed as the new chairman of the league committee, with Salahuddin making the announcement during a media event on Thursday.
Imrul Hasan currently holds the position of president at Bashundhara Kings, a team that has earned recognition as the best in the country over the past five years. The club secured four consecutive league titles and has enhanced the country's reputation at the international level. Imrul is credited with transforming Bashundhara Kings into a model club dedicated to the development of football in the country, with several of its players dominating the national team.
Salahuddin expressed his confidence in Imrul's qualifications to take on the role of chairman of the professional league committee. Addressing concerns about a potential conflict of interest as the top executive of a club, Salahuddin assured that Imrul's abilities make him suitable for the position. Imrul will now handle the responsibilities of the professional league committee, allowing Salahuddin to focus on other presidential duties.
Kazi Nabil Ahmed, Acting Director in charge of Abahani Ltd., and Salam Murshedi, associated with Mohammedan and having served on the professional league committee, were mentioned in connection with their roles in various committees. Kazi Nabil, Chairman of the National Team Committee, emphasized their commitment to fulfilling responsibilities honestly, even if related to their respective clubs. He highlighted the importance of rule changes to support those associated with clubs moving forward.
Imrul Hasan expressed gratitude to the BFF President for presenting him with a new challenge and acknowledged the inevitability of controversy in sports. Drawing parallels with debates in global football, he committed to fulfilling his responsibilities diligently to minimize controversies. While he hasn't finalized his approach, Imrul pledged to ensure that the top league starts and concludes at specific times. He recognized the challenge posed by conflicting international and league windows and expressed a desire to align them in the future to facilitate clubs in recruiting quality foreign players.
