Shayak Dost (born 1 May 2002) is a Pakistani professional footballer who plays for WAPDA and the Pakistan national team.[1] Primarily a left winger, Dost can also be deployed as a left midfielder or left wing-back.
Club career
[edit]Lyallpur

WAPDA
[edit]By the next year he had joined WAPDA of the Pakistan Premier League.[1]
Loan to Abu Muslim
[edit]On 20 December 2023, Dost was approached by Afghanistan Champions League club Abu Muslim FC to sign a one-season deal.[3][4] On 28 December, he finalised his move to the club.[5]
He returned to WAPDA in May 2024 following the resumption of the 2023–24 PFF National Challenge Cup.[6] He was subsequently awarded as top scorer of the competition.[7][8]
International career
[edit]Dost represented Pakistan at the youth level in 2020 AFC U-19 Championship qualification.[9] He went on to make four appearances in the campaign.[10]
In August 2022 Dost was called up for a trials with the senior national team.[1] In November the same year, he was included in Pakistan's squad for a friendly against Nepal, Pakistan's first fixture in nearly three-and-a-half years because of the Pakistan Football Federation's suspension by FIFA.[11][12] He made his senior international debut as a second-half substitute in the eventual 0–1 away defeat.
Style of play
