Abdus Salam Murshedy (born 6 October 1963)[1] is a Bangladeshi politician, entrepreneur and former national team football player.

Abul Kalam Azad, the 3rd brother was for a long time the body building champion of Bangladesh in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

At that time, he started playing in Dhaka First Division League for Azad Sporting Club.

He contributed to MSC's first title win in foreign soil, scoring 10 goals during the Ashish Jabbar football tournament in Durgapur, India.

During the 1982 Quaid-e-Azam International Cup, Murshedy scored for Bangladesh against Pakistan Youth team in 1–2 loss.
