According to reports, Amanullah Rauf Baloch, representing Pakistan in the Norway Cup Street Football Championship, arrived in Oslo with the team but separated from them before the event began and has since cut off contact with the team management and fellow players.
The player still has his passport in his possession.
Team management said they had made extensive efforts to contact Amanullah Rauf Baloch, who hails from Lyari in Karachi, but without success.
Last month, during the World University Games in Germany, two students from Punjab University, Shazil Ahmed and Nadeem Ali, similarly disappeared while participating in the sporting event.
Last August, Three players from the national hockey team and their physiotherapist, who had travelled to Poland with the team, did not return to Pakistan. It has been reported that these individuals have applied for political asylum abroad.
