Marked for Sardar Azmoun

Squad24 May 2027

Mohammad Hosseini breaks a bone — 51 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 51 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market24 May 2027

Majid Karimi puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Gostaresh Foulad, and it is not being withdrawn.

A falling-out at Gostaresh Foulad

Ali Pouraliganji and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

A row about effort at Gostaresh Foulad

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Majid Karimi was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The manager makes an example of Sardar Azmoun

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Morteza Khodadad asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Mohammad Hosseini breaks a bone — 101 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 101 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market5 Apr 2027

Ramin Cheshmi hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Gostaresh Foulad can pretend not to have heard.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Real improvement from Pejman Rezaeian at Gostaresh Foulad

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Pejman Rezaeian is 19, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Tempers go at Gostaresh Foulad

Ali Pouraliganji was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad5 Apr 2027

Majid Karimi falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout5 Apr 2027

Gostaresh Foulad keep their word to Seyed Mehdi Hosseini

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout5 Apr 2027

Shahriar Yazdani asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

The dugout5 Apr 2027

No hiding place for Sardar Azmoun

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Sardar Azmoun, and the manager let it.

Market5 Apr 2027

The Ali Pouraliganji talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Gostaresh Foulad know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

A fracture rules Mohammad Hosseini out for 108 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Gostaresh Foulad will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Gostaresh Foulad can pretend not to have heard.

Sardar Azmoun keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Gostaresh Foulad may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.
