Squad23 Nov 2026

The knee: Vouria Vafaei out for 44 days

44 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Padideh lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Player ratings23 Nov 2026

Both of them Ahmad Vafaei's — 8.80

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.80, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings23 Nov 2026

Age has not caught Kaveh Taremi yet — 7.99

At 33 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.99 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Words exchanged at Padideh

Reza Ghoddos and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Mohammad Gandomi gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Mohammad Gandomi has just signed for Padideh, and for once the answer mattered.

Match21 Nov 2026

Ahmad Vafaei the difference as Padideh beat Saba

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Ahmad Vafaei. 2‑0 against Saba, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings23 Nov 2026

Sardar Mohammadi beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 15. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Morteza Beiranvand, on a 2‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

When it matters, Alireza Taremi plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Real improvement from Mohammad Amini at Padideh

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Mohammad Amini is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Words exchanged at Padideh

Alireza Taremi and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market12 Oct 2026

Majid Azmoun told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Majid Azmoun has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Padideh.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Mohammad Pouraliganji gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Mohammad Pouraliganji is on it.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Majid Azmoun 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 dugout12 Oct 2026

The manager makes Ahmad Moharrami a promise

Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at Padideh. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

Market12 Oct 2026

Vahid Shojaei linked with a move away

The name of Vahid Shojaei keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Padideh say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Mani Sharifnejad has settled at Padideh

The shrug has gone, the language is coming, and he now argues in training like somebody who expects to be here next year. Half a signing's value is this and none of it appears on a fee.

Looking ahead12 Oct 2026

Padideh host Gostaresh Foulad

Next up at home: Gostaresh Foulad, who go into it in position 9. The kind of fixture a season is quietly built on or quietly loses its shape in.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Alireza Taremi pulls a muscle — 14 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 14 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Padideh

Alireza Taremi 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 Oct 2026

Words at Padideh training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Reza Ghoddos is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

The afternoon belonged to Reza Ghoddos

A mark of 7.24, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

Morteza Beiranvand on the point

“A point is a point and I will take it, but we should have had all three.” Morteza Beiranvand after the 0‑0 draw, and the sentence every manager in the country said at some stage this weekend.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

The form table has caught Ahmad Moharrami

Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

When it matters, Alireza Jahanbakhsh plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Match3 Oct 2026

Padideh draw a blank against Siah Jamegan

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. Siah Jamegan defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

Majid Azmoun knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Majid Azmoun trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Match9 Sep 2026

Cup progress for Padideh

A 1‑0 win over Naft Tehran, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Alireza Jahanbakhsh was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 32. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Both of them Kaveh Taremi's — 9.18

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.18, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market14 Sep 2026

Majid Azmoun 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 Padideh can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Mohammad Pouraliganji, 33, rolls back the years — 8.07

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.07 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Transfer targets14 Sep 2026

Padideh baulk at the price for Mohammed Reza Azadi

Esteghlal wanted more than $1.2M and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Match12 Sep 2026

Padideh keep winning on the road

4 away wins in a row. Travelling support is the truest kind, and this season it is being repaid in the only currency that counts.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Padideh training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Reza Ghoddos is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match12 Sep 2026

Kaveh Taremi sends Padideh past Esteghlal Ahvaz

It finished 3‑1, and it was Kaveh Taremi’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Padideh.
