Pakistani-Danish defender Nabil Aslam has joined Denmark 1st Division side AB as he aims to make a return to professional football after some months on the sidelines.
The talented centre-back, who has already expressed interest in representing Pakistan, has prior Danish Superliga and UEFA Europa League experience with AC Horsens and signed with AB after trying to move to Asia.
Nonetheless, Nabil is delighted to return to action and the coaching staff at AB are equally eager to have on board.
“We tried to sign Nabil earlier, but there were many challenges. But now he is here and that suits us perfectly. Nabil has plenty of top-flight experience at a high level but still has the hunger and ambition to move forward with the team,” said manager Thomas Nørgaard while talking to ab-fodbold.dk.
Now as some players got contract in foreign leaguesi-e pro setup, so coach should now give a try to foreign-based and these players as kaleem,adil,ahmed and saddam can understand pro type of game.If some players get contract in k league then it would be ideal to combined those players with foreign-based players especially sami malik,butt brothers and Mo ali as they are comparatively young as compared to zesh and nabil etc and if given chance continuously can build up a fine competitive side
Yes. But I do believe you need Zesh and Nabil as centre-backs. That could be a game-changer for us.
Yes that would be but i think their chances are bleak as the coach want youngsters so considering that sami malik,Mo ali and yaqoob butt may have a chance.
I think that is an illogical statement from the coach. Age should be not a reason why someone plays, it’s ages.
And as far as that goes, you can expect Ahmed or Bilal to be as good as Zesh Rehman or Nabil Aslam, it just doesn’t happen, no matter where they go and play.
It’s about abilities; technically, vision and game-reading all important traits and both Nabil and Zesh are miles ahead in that.
Pakistan should get at least one overseas Pakistani player in every depertment i.e. defense, midfield and attack.
Our local players playing alongside them will also learn from them.
Yes as dardoi trio+Ahmed are no in fully pro environment so including overseas players will definatly help the team.These 4 players can be a bridge between local and overseas.
Agreed. Let’s see what the coach does after the Asian Games.
