Pakistani footballer Mohammad Fazal has officially signed with Serbian SuperLiga club IMT Belgrade, marking a pivotal moment in his career.
The 22-year-old left-back’s transfer was delayed due to work permit documentation complications and administrative procedures, but the deal has now been finalized.
Fazal’s move to Serbia comes after an impressive stint with Nordic United, where his performances caught the attention of scouts despite limited opportunities at the national level where he has made 2 appearances for Pakistan men’s national team.
His defensive prowess and consistency on the field for Nordic United in Sweden’s third tier showcased his potential, leading to his selection by IMT Belgrade.
Joining the Serbian SuperLiga offers Fazal a chance to compete in one of Europe’s top-flight leagues. The Serbian top flight is known for its high level of competition, which will allow the young defender to sharpen his skills and gain invaluable experience against seasoned European players.
This transfer also marks a significant moment for Pakistani football, as Fazal becomes one of the few players from Pakistan to make a breakthrough into European football.
His success abroad will likely inspire young footballers in Pakistan, highlighting the opportunities available for those who excel at the international level.
Fazal recently made his debut against Saudi Arabia at Jinnah Stadium and made his second international appearance against Tajikistan at the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers.
