Career

Early years

At the time he was playing for AFC Chaman in 2009, KRL scouted him in a match against the team when he came as a substitute and decided to sign him.[5]

He played a major role in helping the team win a treble; the league title, league cup and super cup, finishing as top goal scorer, scoring 18 goals in 17 appearances in the league with 3 goals out of 3 appearances in the domestic league cup.[17] Khan's remarkable form and greater goals to appearance ratio for Dordoi Bishkek in the Shoro Top League as well as Kyrgyzstan Cup and Kyrgyzstan Super Cup in 2014 edition earned him the best player award in the league by the Football Federation of the Kyrgyz Republic.[18][17] In total, Kaleemullah finished with 21 goals in 21 matches in the 2014 season for his new club in all competitions.

By doing so, he became the first Pakistani football player to play in US and score there.

“I finally scored a goal and this was important for me. I played as striker for the first time for Roughnecks and scored. Earlier, I was playing as a winger. So this has given me the confidence that I am good enough. I just want to thank everyone who supported me. My coach was very supportive; he took a chance by letting me play as a striker and I delivered a good performance... He was happy for me that I started scoring. He said that this will benefit the team. He also told me that winning or losing is a part of the game and I just need to continue my game.”

Kaleemullah in an interview with The Express Tribune.[29]

He earned seven caps for the under-23s and scored one goal, the first in a 2–0 thrashing of arch-rivals India by a free-kick.[47] Whilst with the under-23 team, Kaleemullah also represented Pakistan in the Asian Games and South Asian Games.

The following year, Khan's regular appearances for KRL's first team caused Pakistan national team manager Zaviša Milosavljević to publicly consider him for a call-up, Khan was named in the squad for a friendly against Palestine.[1] With less opportunity to try out new players, and with the national team facing crucial qualifiers for the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup, Milosavljević felt that Khan was needed at the national level. He was called in the senior squad for its next get-together, a training session in Lahore in March. Khan earned his first senior cap for Pakistan in a 0–0 draw against Palestine on 4 March 2011 prior to the qualifiers.[1] He made his debut in this game as a substitute at the Punjab Stadium, his home stadium.

2018 World Cup qualifiers

Kaleemullah was also called up for the qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup against Yemen and played in legs of the matches which were played at neutral venues in March 2015, due to security concerns in their respective countries. Pakistan could not beat the strong Yemen national team and lost 3–1 away in Qatar, and drew 0–0 at the home leg in Bahrain. Pakistan ended up getting knocked out of the World Cup Qualifiers on an aggregate score of 3–1.

PFF dispute

Khan had a dispute with PFF authorities as the former spoke out on the federation's incompetence which ultimately led him not to be selected for the 2018 SAFF Championship. PFF banned the Pakistani players to speak about this matter on any platform.[48][49] In response Khan, the experienced star striker questioned how PFF could implement such an order considering none of the players are centrally contracted to them.[50] To further complicate matters, PFF's Sardar Naveed Haider Khan accused the striker of signing a contract with Turkish fifth-tier side Izmirspor ‘for the money’ and neglecting national duty. However Khan disagreed by saying “My name was specifically omitted from the list by PFF president because of the statements I’d given about the working of the PFF and it’s very petty-minded of them to do that really.”[48]

Style of play

Khan is known for being an attacking all-rounder, capable of playing in different forward positions.. As he came through the youth system, he was seen primarily as a midfielder, but since breaking into the first-team he has been used in more forward roles.[2] He has been used as an out-and-out striker on occasion.

Khan has been praised for his maturity, pace, technique, awareness and positioning. He has been compared with Lionel Messi due to his goal scoring record by the local media in Pakistan.[2]

Personal life

Kaleemullah is the cousin of former Pakistan national team captain and highest goal-scorer Muhammad Essa Khan.[51] He lost his father in 2010 at the age of 18, when he was at Myanmar at that time playing in the 2010 AFC President’s Cup with KRL, which followed the demise of his mother three years earlier in 2007.[5]
