The Bangladesh President's Gold Cup (Bengali: বাংলাদেশ প্রেসিডেন্ট গোল্ডকাপ) was an international football tournament held annually from 1981 to 1993 in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It succeeded the Aga Khan Gold Cup which was held in a similar format.[1] According to historian Kausik Bandyopadhyay, the cup was intended to attract national or similarly high performance teams from abroad, but participants "fell far short of such expectations".[2]
