In the following season he scored five in 12.

On 19 September 2019, Bangladesh Premier League champions Bashundhara Kings announced the signing of Kdouh on a one-year loan.[5] His first goal for the club came on 24 October 2019, scoring a brace against Chennai City in a 3–2 win in the group stage of the 2019 Sheikh Kamal International Club Cup.[6] He scored once again the following game, against Terengganu, ending the tournament with three goals.[7]

Kdouh scored two goals at the 2019–20 Bangladesh Federation Cup,[8][9] to help his side win the title, the first in their history.[10] He ended his stay with the Bangladeshi side with five goals in seven appearances without, however, featuring in the league.
