Hannover 96 to hold a testimonial for Farhad Majidi who announced his retirement from professional football earlier this season.
According to some published rumors in local media, Farhad Majidi wants to resume his career for more six months in Esteghlal FC but Ali Fathollahzadeh refused these claims by saying: “Farhad Majidi is currently taking football coaching courses in abroad but he may join Esteghlal FC for the last three or four matches in Iran Pro League.
Amir Ghalenoei has also accepted this offer so it depends on Farhad’s decision.” Base on this sentence, it seems the former captain of Blues may sign a new contract with his beloved club for several games but it’s still unclear.
