The 30-year-old currently represents Apollon Limassol FC in the Cyprus League. He has previously represented Molde FK in Norway, alongside Erling Haaland, who represents UEFA Champions League winners Manchester City.
According to experts, Aitzaz’s inclusion in the Pakistan national team will fill the void in the football field, which Rahees Nabi and Alamgir Ghazi were handling with skill. He will help solve the defensive midfield problem in the team.
Pakistan’s next match is on March 21 when the Green Shirts host Jordan. Later on March 26, the team will play in Jordan. Pakistan has qualified for the second round of FIFA World Cup qualifying for the first time in its history.
Pakistan had earlier defeated Saudi Arabia and Tajikistan 4-0 and 6-1 respectively.
With these victories, the morale of the team and the people of Pakistan and the interest in this game has increased considerably.
