Majid Hosseini ahead of Trabzonspor move

Persianfootball.com – TRABZON, Iran defender Majid Hosseini is close to transfer to Turkish club Trabzonspor, according to several Turkish sources.

The 22-year-old Esteghlal center-back impressed at the FIFA World Cup after surprisingly making the Iranian squad, making three flawless appearances.

Hosseini has a 100.000 Euro release clause in his contract, which Trabzonspor is willing to pay.

The club, who has finished fifth in the Superlig last season and will compete in UEFA Europa League qualifying, has reportedly also set their eyes on Hosseini’s fellow Team Melli defender Morteza Pouraliganji.

The 26-year-old’s contract with Al Sadd ended last week, but no agreement has been reached yet.
