Persepolis goalkeeper set to join Norwegian club

Tehran Times – TEHRAN, Last season’s Persepolis first choice goalkeeper is currently on trial at Norwegian second division side Mjondalen IF and is expected to sign a contract according to the local media.

“We have been watching him for a while and I think he is an interesting goalkeeper,” MIFs sports director Kenneth Karlsen said.

The 29-year old keeper who didn’t fulfill the expectations last season at Persepolis left the club to continue his career in Europe.

The 29-year-old shot-stopper who has previously played for Foolad, Naft Tehran and Steel Azin has made three appearances for the Iranian national team as well.

Makani has been suspended from playing football for six months in Iran for ‘inappropriate conduct’.
