“I have decided in principle to move to Sheikh Jamal but nothing has been finalised yet,” said Mamunul. He however refused to confirm the payment figure.
Sheikh Jamal are reportedly set to form a strong side for next season and have convinced eight national players so far – Mamunul and defender Asharaf Mahmud Linkon of Sheikh Russel, defender Kesto Kumar and striker Toklish Ahmed of BJMC, striker Shakhawat Hossain Rony of Abahani, defenders Shohel Rana and Yeasin, goalkeeper Mamun Khan and former national winger Mobarrak Hossain of Mohammedan.
Sheikh Jamal president Manjur Kader however was quite tight-lipped, but admitted they would form a strong team for the upcoming season. This season, they have finished runners-up in both Federation Cup and Independence Cup and are currently in third position of the nine-team professional football league with a match in hand.
