Anwar Uddin (born November 1, 1981 in Whitechapel (London) England) is an English professional footballer of Bangladeshi descent currently playing with Dagenham & Redbridge in the English League Two, where he plays as a defender and as captain.
Anwar signed for the club during the summer of 2004 after leaving Bristol Rovers. The no-nonsense defender began his career at West Ham United, working his way up through their youth and reserve teams where he was captain. Anwar was in West Ham's victorious 1999 FA Youth Cup winning squad that defeated Coventry City. Although highly regarded, as a talented traditional English defender, he was never able to break through to the first team and in February 2002 decided to move to Sheffield Wednesday for an undisclosed fee.
His stay was brief though, after the collapse of ITV digital, Sheffield Wednesday couldn't keep him due to financial difficulties, then moving to Bristol Rovers the following summer after only 4 months and no appearances for the Championship club. He was an almost ever present in the following season until the end of October, picking up a groin injury which he was to struggle with for the rest of the season.
After making a couple of appearances the following season he was loaned out to Hereford United and Telford United, and was released by Bristol Rovers at the end of the season.
Anwar Uddin is very keen to play for Bangladesh national football team. Kazi Salahuddin, the chief of BFF, welcomed him on May 1, 2008. But Anwar Uddin took some time to think about it.
