Returning from the development committee meeting of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) in Kuala Lumpur, Sultan also said that FIFA president Sepp Blatter's official letter has also arrived at the federation.

"We got the news in Kuala Lumpur. They have allotted four lakh dollars for the purpose," said Sultan.

BFF submitted a 5.1-lakh-dollar budget for a training academy in Gazipur. The football governing body of the country built its own building, the BFF Bhaban, under the first 'Goal Project'. The BFF had to spend an additional one lakh dollars beside the allotted four lakh from world's football governing body for the Bhaban.

"We have also appealed to the AFC to increase its monthly aid for us to meet the demand of a foreign coach. We have also sought help from them to introduce professional league in Bangladesh," said Sultan.

"It now looks sure that we can not launch a professional league in January due to lack of infrastructure. So we cannot go according to the suggestions of Vision Bangladesh. The AFC accepted that we would need some time to implement all the recommendations of Vision Bangladesh."
