The current FIFA World Cup Champions, Lionel Messi's Argentina, is likely to visit Dhaka next June to play a FIFA Friendly match in the capital.
BFF President Kazi Mohammad Salahuddin said on Tuesday that the Argentina team accepted our proposal to play friendly match in Dhaka in FIFA window in June.
The tour of Argentina team in Bangladesh is almost final, we are now discussing with them about their team and conditions, if everything will progress in right way then there is no doubt about the match, he added.
But, the opponent of Argentina's team yet to be confirmed, BFF is closely communicating with some countries to play the match against Argentina.
Lionel Messi's Argentina Football team played a friendly football match against Nigeria National team at the Bangabandhu National Stadium in Dhaka on Sept 6 in 2011 where Argentina beat Nigeria by 3-1 goals, but that time, Argentina was not the World Champions.
