BPL deferred again

The Bangladesh Premier League is set to be deferred again as the participating clubs are sticking to their decision not to take part in the professional football league until the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) promises to give away Tk 25 lakh to each team as participation money.

Affluent Sheikh Jamal DC has demanded Tk 15 lakh more than last season's participation money and other clubs supported Sheikh Jamal DC's move.

“The league was scheduled to get underway from April 3 but it may be deferred by one or two days as the BFF president will sit with the clubs in a meeting on Friday to solve the matter,” said BFF general secretary Abu Nayeem Shohag.
