The AFFA Scouting Department, led by Bakhtiyar Musayev, has intensified its search for footballers from abroad for the national teams.
İdman.Biz reports with reference to futbolinfo.az that the research is already about to show its positive effect.
Representatives of the national association have discovered several young footballers, especially in Germany. One of them is Raul Suleymanov, a midfielder for Hertha's U-19 team.
The 16-year-old playmaker, originally from Shaki, was attracted to the academy of the German club at the age of 12. He currently wears the uniform of the Berlin representative's youth team.
Raul's development in Germany has also attracted the attention of Azerbaijani scouts. For this reason, he is expected to be invited to one of our national teams of lower age groups. Since Suleymanov himself wants to play for the national team of his native country, AFFA will not face serious difficulties in this matter.
