Magar was born in Nawalparasi, Panchanagar 1, Nepal[3] and is from Bhutaha village in Nawalparasi. Magar's father, Hom Bahadur was also a footballer who played locally. It was his father and his childhood mentor who inspired Magar to take up football. Hom Bahadur's greatest wish was to see Magar play for the national team, but he died in a motorbike accident before Magar made it to the highest level.[4] He broke the previous record of Bharat Khawash.
Magar was selected by the All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) to join the ANFA Academy in Butwal after his performance for the Butwal Elite English School during the Subroto Cup, held in New Delhi. The Butwal Elite English School went on to win the tournament.[5] Subsequently that year, during the AFC U-14 Football Festival Magar was then transferred to the Central ANFA Academy, where he gained further attention by senior officials at ANFA.[3] Which in turn, lead to Magar being included in the national team's squad during a friendly against Bangladesh at the age of 14.During November 2013, Magar was invited for a 2-week trial with the Dutch club, FC Twente[8] where he scored 4 goals with 1 assist during a friendly match against HSC 21 U-19, which ended in a 9-0 victory for FC Twente U-16.[9] However, due employment laws and FIFA regulations on youth transfers[10][11] it was not possible to sign Magar at the age of 16, despite FC Twente being 'impressed' with his performance.On 8 June 2014 Magar penned a new 1-year deal to join Anderlecht U-19. The ANFA confirmed that Magar's contract began from July 26, 2014 to May 31, 2015 with Anderlecht bearing all expenses. Bimal's first tournament with Anderlecht was the Copa del Agatha in St. Agatha, North Brabant, Netherlands. After scoring two goals, Bimal finished the tournament as a runner-up for RSC Anderlecht, losing 0–3 to Atletico Paranaense in the final.[24] Bimal was absent during the 2014 Otten Cup due to a minor injury.
