Fahamedul Islam (born 30 June 2006) is a Bangladeshi-Italian professional footballer who plays as a left-midfielder or left-back for Serie D club Olbia Calcio 1905.
Club career
[edit]Islam was born in Feni, Bangladesh, and moved to Italy at a young age.[1] He developed through the youth academies of Spezia Calcio and later U.C. Sampdoria, where he played for the under-18 team, making 25 appearances and scoring four goals in the 2023–24 season.[2]
In 2024, he transitioned to senior football, joining Serie D club Sport Club Ligorna 1922, where he made six appearances. Later that year, he moved to US Livorno 1915, playing two matches before signing with Olbia Calcio 1905 on 5 February 2025. He made an immediate impact by scoring a hat-trick for the club’s under-19 team, and almost scoring an equaliser in his first-team debut against Paganese a few days later.[2]
International career
[edit]In 2025, Islam was called up to the preliminary squad of the Bangladesh national football team for the AFC Asian Cup qualifiers against India. Bangladesh national team coach Javier Cabrera highlighted Islam’s experience in European football and his versatility in playing both left-back and left midfield.[3][4][5]
