Belgian coach Tom Saintfiet returned to Bangladesh yesterday morning after attending to his pregnant wife in Belgium for the last two weeks.

“I'm very happy to be back in Bangladesh. After my vacation in Belgium, I told my wife I miss Bangladesh. I was looking forward to be back and now we can start working. The real work starts now,” said Saintfiet adding that he would sign the agreement with the Bangladesh Football Federation today.

The 43-year-old coach also said that he would announce a 32-member squad on Friday for the Asian Cup Qualifying play-off against Bhutan to be held on September 6 in Dhaka.

The training camp of the national football team will get underway from August 21 after the completion of the sixth round of the ongoing Bangladesh Premier League.
