Half-Iranian in Guam national team

[Rooyintan]

There is a footballer by the name of Bijan Gloston in Guam national football team. By his first name it seems he's half-Iranian.

Anyone knows of this player? If he knows Farsi, I won't be surprised if jounalists will seek him for an interview when their team comes to Tehran.

Lol yeah, I saw his name on Guam's list few months ago, but I did not think he'd actually be Iranian.

Maybe the name Bijan is a given name on those little islands above Australia? Lol

maybe his dad was a huge Bijan Mortazavi fan?

It is interesting that he has an Iranian name

Last time an iranian custome told me that the country of Cambodia is coming from the indo-iranian people Kambojas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamboja
Can anyone confirm and give more details?

its good to see iranians doing good in football in other places. just shows we have the talent in our blood. even if they might not be super stars, just playing pro is pretty good.

It is a somewhat rare practice for African Americans to adopt names of Iranian origin such as "Darious", "Iran", etc. They choose Islamic (Arabic) names much more frequently. Bijan is popularized by a fashion brand in the USA. I guess some new parents grabbed it while it was hot.

Iranians have been inter-marrying all over the world, so it's natural For our footballing talents to be recognised by other countries. Thanks to CQ's revolution of inviting some of them - we are now focusing, identifying and even looking for more and more of them.
