About

Football Club Bunyodkor (Uzbek: Bunyodkor futbol klubi) is a professional football club based in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Bunyodkor, a relatively obscure club at the time, made international headlines when it claimed to be close to signing world-famous Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o, although he did not sign with them. On 25 August 2008, AEK Athens Brazilian superstar Rivaldo announced to the Greek press that he was joining Bunyodkor on a reported $14 million two-year contract. The club finished second in the 2007 Uzbek League season and made the semi-finals of the 2008 AFC Champions League. In the beginning of August 2008, the club changed its name to Bunyodkor from PFC Kuruvchi to reflect the club's success on the pitch and its increasing professionalism off the pitch. Bunyodkor is the second best team of AFC Champions League's history after Pakhtakor by participating in 10 consecutive tournaments of Champions League from 2008 to 2017.
