Reports are foreign club teams were very keen to participate in this tournament.
But since the purpose of this tournament is to revitalise our own football, Mr.Superb Salahuddin decided that the first two editions will be local teams only, giving them the chance to make some serious money, and not just they come and take all while we only watch.
Then on 2011, the game will be open to international teams and BFF is already in talks with AFC to fit this tournament in their annual calender and we might be onto something big here.
He is talking of a annual big international club tournament here.
By the time his tenure ends, Salahuddin wants to make sure BFF have a fixed deposit of Tk 25 Crore.
Well, so far, he has been matching his words.
