বিশ্বের নানা ফুটবলারদের নামের আসল উচ্চারণ নিয়ে আমরা অনেকসময় সমস্যায় পড়ি। নিজস্ব দেশ ও অঞ্চলভেদে একেকজনের নামের উচ্চারণ আসলে একেকরকম। অনেক দলের নামের উচ্চারণেও দেখা যায় বানানের সঙ্গে ভিন্নতা।
এক্ষেত্রে ইংরেজি বানান অনুযায়ী উচ্চারণ করতে গিয়ে অনেকেই সমস্যায় পড়েন। সে সমস্যার সমাধানে অনেকেই ফুটবলার বা দলের নাম নিজেদের মতো করেই বলেন।
তবে যদি বিভিন্ন দলের বা ফুটবলারদের নামের আসল উচ্চারন জানতে চান, সেক্ষেত্রে সমাধান নিয়ে এসেছে ডেইলি বাংলাদেশ। প্রিয় পাঠকরা নিচের তালিকাটি দেখতে পারেন, যেখানে ইংরেজি বানানের সঙ্গে সেটির উচ্চারণের ধরণটা লেখে দেওয়া হয়েছে পাশেই।
শুরুতে দলের নাম ও এরপর সেই দলের খেলোয়াড়দের নামের প্রকৃত উচ্চারণ দেওয়া হয়েছে।
