UEFA Pro-Licensed-holder English Football Coach Peter James Butler arrived in Dhaka on Wednesday afternoon to take charge of the BFF Elite Football Academy.
Butler, who was appointed by the Development Committee of BFF few days back, will provide the modern and advanced training to the trainee footballers of BFF Elite Football Academy at the Kamalapur Stadium here.
He will replace 56-year-old another Englishman and former technical director of BFF Paul Smalley, who resigned from his post last July, citing that the Federation failed to fulfill his demands.
Born in August 1966, Butler served as the head coach of Liberia national team since 2019, head coach of the Indonesian super league team Persipura from 2017-18, head coach of the Botswana national team from 2014-17 and two Malaysian super league sides from 2011-14.
