Whitecaps declined the option on beitashour so hes a free agent

[Ali Doust]

He needs to play in Iran to be considered for a call up. Maybe struggling Foolad would be interested.

Playing in Iran won't change anything unless he performs way better or our other RBs perform worse/get injured. He is already on the TM radar since a long time, if anything finding another MLS team or European team and playing well there might increase his call-up chances

[ShiroKhorshid]

As an MLS player he actually has good chances to continue in europe. At 28 certainly not in the top leagues but a move to Austria, Sweden etc could happen. Best of luck to him.

^ Damn so he got traded to the rival team.

Well at least he's still in the MLS.

Why isn't Carlos inviting him?? I know we have Vouria, but he's also in his late 20's. They can both play. Does Carlos not care about Beitashour anymore or what? He's been starting every game and playing well.

Maybe it's because he has to fly really far which will cause jet lag. Jet lag will cause fatigue and other problems. I guess this is the reason.

This is a good move for Beitashour! The whitecaps showed all their potential last year which revealed them to be only a good team. They weren't ever real contenders to win the title... at least it definitely showed at the end of the season.
Toronto FC on the other hand is making the right moves to go for the win. They have top players going forward(Jozy Alitdore, Michael Bradley, and Giovinco) but they lacked defense.
When Beitashour played for the Earthquakes, they had a top notch defense, just like the year after with the Whitecaps. Be sure that Toronoto is going to improve big time next season.

[Ghermez Agha]

Great move he will be playing with some great players like Bradley, altidore, giovinvo, etc.

its because ramin and vouria are superior. There is no point to 3 rbs

[ali alipour]

That's definitely a downgrade Toronto fc's defense has been the worst in the league since the team was created

[Kiarash]

A move to Europe would have increased his chances for a TM-call up, I don't think he will back soon with this Toronto transfer.

Have u seen Rezaeian at all this season? He's been pitiful especially in TM

Really? I thought he has been playing quite well, especially in TM lol.

With the exception of the first few weeks of the season, where Persepolis was in poor form, I think he has been good all season.
