Nice & surprising!! Thanks for sharing.

Nice & surprising!! Thanks for sharing.

He's on their first team now?

[GolfePersique]

I guess he's now playing with the reserves. The report says he scored one of the 7 goals in a recent match, but I couldn't find any recent NEC main team result with such score.

[pajamNL]

He's on their first team now?

I think reserves , still no mentioning of this in Dutch news nor NEC (fan) website(s)

[_Navid_]

He has joined NEC's youth team according to ISNA

[irani8perspolis]

Some minor discoveries and other updates:

-21 y/o Leftback Farzin Weysi plays for FC Austria 11 - Rapid Oberlaa in the Austrian 5th tier and has made 7 appearances and scored once this season

-22 y/o Defender Sean Sabetkar plays for Sollentuna FK in the Swedish 3rd tier and has made 6 appearances this season

-19 y/o Jean Ghafourian has signed with SC Paderborn II in the German fifth tier and has made 6 appearances so far this season

-23 y/o Soheyl Alipour-Rafi has moved from Germany and is now playing for NCAA Division I school James Madison University

-25 y/o Striker Omid Saberdest signed with Berliner SC in the German sixth tier and has scored 3 goals in 8 games so far this season.



ALSO: not player related but great news nonetheless:

-Parsian IF, a team in Sweden made by Iranian immigrants and based in Stockholm won promotion to Division 5 (7th tier), hopefully one day we will see them in the top leagues of Sweden

Still no single news on this here in Holland.

[Mamad Gorgu]

Does anyone have stats for average distance covered per player in Iran's league versus the same for European leagues?

I remember Queiroz alluding to it once as a reason why we should recruit Iranians playing in Europe, but haven't seen any actual stats.

Jalinous with one of Augsburg assistant coaches Amir Ahmadi. Good to see more iranians involved with coaching in europe, Nouri, Ahmadi, Goteborg coach, Kia FC coach who went to AIK, etc.
