Alam cleared to play for Ba FC

July 27, 2025 12:50 pm

Former national team goalkeeper Alzaar Alam has officially been cleared to play for Ba FC, bringing an end to a transfer dispute that had sidelined him.

Alam’s move was initially challenged by the Rewa Football Association, who reportedly demanded a $15,000 transfer fee from Ba FA during last month’s mid-season transfer window.

However, the Fiji FA disputes committee convened last Friday and cleared Alam’s transfer, with Ba FA required to pay a player transfer fee of $220.
