He is now eligible to represent Bangladesh in their upcoming Asian Cup qualifying match against Singapore, which will be held in Dhaka on June 10th.
On April 11th, ShamitShome said his wish to play for Bangladesh. Remarkably, within 25 days, the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) efficiently secured his birth certificate, passport, No objection Certificate from Canada, and FIFA approval. The swift acquisition of FIFA clearance, achieved within a single day of his passport issuance, has been especially commended.
In addition, it’s remarkably that FIFA granted approval within 24 hours. This swift process was facilitated by the fact that Shamet’s two appearances for Canada occurred outside of FIFA’s official match windows, meaning they weren’t considered competitive international caps. Furthermore, his parents’ Bangladeshi heritage simplified the FIFA eligibility process.
