Booters appeal to BFF to start next season’s BPL early

DHAKA  – The national booters appealed the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) to start the next season’s
Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) as early as possible because they are already affected after this season’s league was abandoned in the middle due to the coronavirus pandemic.

It is very important for us because we run our family by playing league …… if we get a probable date about the next league,
it will reduce our mental tension.”

On the other hand, midfielder Abdullah said due to cancellations of this season’s league we all request the BFF to start the next season league as early as possible. It would hamper our performance if there is long gap to arrange of the league. It will be very tough to keep fitness level up without playing league and matches.”
