Club career
As a goal scoring midfielder, Rasool had been playing for KRL FC between 1999 and 2003, and was constantly in the goals for the national team.[2]
However, he controversially left Pakistan soon after and moved to England, which effectively ended his international career, but remained with KRL for some seasons, before eventually joining the renamed PMC Club Athletico Faisalabad in August 2008.[2]
