Bangladesh team captain Jamal Bhuiyan said, "It wouldn't be bad to have a few more Hamzas." He commented that the news of Leicester City's English Premier League midfielder Hamza Chowdhury playing in Bangladesh is very good news for the country's football fans.

Jamal Bhuiyan, Mamunul Islam and a few others participated in the inauguration ceremony of the BFF-AFC 'A' Diploma Course on Friday morning. While talking to the media there, when journalists raised the issue of Hamza Chowdhury, Jamal Bhuiyan said, "Hamza's playing for the country is a big deal. Because he is playing in the English Premier League. If there were three or four more Hamzas, it would be much better for the country's football."

Currently, Jamal Bhuiyan is unable to participate in club football due to complications over his contract with Abahani Club. Also, due to personal reasons, he was unable to play in the friendly matches against Maldives last November. During this time, Jamal was in Denmark and played and trained for local clubs.

Apart from Jamal Bhuiyan, former and current footballers and coaches are participating in the course today. Jamal, after spending time with the young footballers organized by BFF, fulfilled their demands by signing their autographs and taking pictures.
