Manchester United delegation reaches Dhaka

A four-member delegation of English Premier League giants Manchester United Football Club are in Dhaka now to discuss the possibility of the club playing a friendly match here.

Bangladesh Football Federation is planning to arrange the game in Dhaka in March next year as part of the celebrations marking the birth centenary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

Earlier Bangladesh Football Federation general secretary Abu Nayeem Shohag told media that the representatives of the 13 times EPL champions would visit Dhaka to inspect ground, hotel and other facilities for a friendly match.

The names of the clubs have not been finalised as yet, but there is a speculation that Juventus or Paris Saint-Germain may play that friendly against Manchester United.
