Mohammedan Sporting removes Humayun Kabir, appoints Ghazal Uz Zafar president
There is a football club called Mohammedan Sporting Club.
The club did not have enough money to pay everyone it owed.
The club's president, Humayun Kabir, said he would bring 25 crore rupees to fix the money problems.
Instead, some of his payment cheques were returned because there was not enough money in the bank.
Because of this, the club decided to remove him from his job.
The club chose a new president named Ghazal Uz Zafar.
Zafar had already given the club financial help so it could keep working every day.
The club still needs to pay players, coaches, workers, and other people it owes money to.
Now the club hopes to fix its finances and become stable again.
Mohammedan Sporting Club removed Humayun Kabir as president, with the decision taking effect from 6 August 2026.
Ghazal Uz Zafar was appointed as the club's new president.
Kabir, the Kandi MLA from the Janata Unnayan Party, had reportedly promised to bring Rs 25 crore to solve the club's financial problems.
Three of Kabir's Rs 50 lakh cheques allegedly bounced, prompting the Executive Committee to take action.
The club faces urgent outstanding liabilities to players, coaching staff, employees, statutory authorities, vendors, and other creditors.
