‘We will pick some football talents from the festival for the forthcoming Super Mokh Under-12 football festival in Malaysia in December,’ said Sonali Otit Club
president Badal Roy, also the vice-president of the Bangladesh Football Federation.
‘The BFF is going start their academy next week, so this festival will also help them to pick some talented footballers for the academy,’ Badal added.
BFF president Kazi Salahuddin will inaugurate the festival today as the chief guest and the managing director of Max Group, Golam Mohammed Alamgir, will also be present on the occasion.
