Bangladeshi origin footballer Hamza Chowdhury receiving Bangladesh passport.

The rumor has been around for a long time. Hamza Chowdhury, who plays for the English club Leicester City, will play for the Bangladesh national football team. Bangladesh Football Federation has been in contact with Hamza for quite some time. As a result, birth registration papers from Bangladesh have also gone to England.

If you want to play in the red-green jersey, you have to get your passport first. Three days ago, Hamza and his Bangladeshi mother Rafia were unhappy because they could not get a passport even after going to the Bangladeshi High Commission in London. His father is Grenadian. They went to Nottingham without passports. Bafuf is taking care of the whole matter of Hamza, who is confused while applying for a passport.

Passport is one of the conditions to play in Bangladesh national football team. And in case of expatriates and natives some more process has to be followed. Apply to FIFA. But at the moment it is more important to have a passport. Bafuf general secretary Imran Hossain Tushar is aware of the news of Hamza's confusion while applying for passport.

He said from the AFC Congress in Bangkok, Thailand, "Hamza and his family are very positive to play football for Bangladesh." We also want a great footballer like Hamza to play for our country. A few days ago I helped his family to register the birth. Bauffe will be by his side in all future processes.

If Hamza has a Bangladeshi passport, Buff will seek his clearance from the England Football Federation. He played for England youth team. Buff will apply to FIFA if the England Football Federation gives the go-ahead. The 26-year-old defensive midfielder will be able to wear the red-green jersey if the FIFA Players Status Committee gives permission.
