Market24 Aug 2026

Esteghlal turn down Padideh for Saleh Hardani

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market24 Aug 2026

Abolfazl Zoleykhaei 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 Esteghlal can pretend not to have heard.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Antonio Adán in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Esteghlal this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Door shut on Masoud Cheshmi

Esteghlal asked and Siah Jamegan said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market24 Aug 2026

Eyes on Abolfazl Zoleykhaei again

The phone has started ringing about Abolfazl Zoleykhaei again, and this time the name on the line is Zob Ahan. Esteghlal are listening politely and promising nothing.

Match22 Aug 2026

Esteghlal find a way past Gostaresh Foulad

Gostaresh Foulad made Esteghlal work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market24 Aug 2026

The Aref Gholami conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Naft Tehran will make the call about Aref Gholami this week. Esteghlal have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Duckens Nazon was the difference for Esteghlal

Marked 7.86. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

A loan move for Mohammad Reza Bordbar is in the works

Esteghlal have made the call to Sepahan. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

In brief

  • Squad Amir Ghoddos signs a new deal
  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • The dugout The manager makes an example of Aref Gholami

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Alireza Koushki runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 32. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market10 Aug 2026

Terms done: Abolfazl Zamani is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Malavan waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Esteghlal is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Market10 Aug 2026

Esteghlal turn down Padideh for Mohammed Reza Azadi

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Parham Movaghari is a medical away from Esteghlal

The deal with Malavan is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Esteghlal

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

Squad10 Aug 2026

Duckens Nazon stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Duckens Nazon and Esteghlal agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Gostaresh Foulad tell Esteghlal: Pejman Vafaei is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market10 Aug 2026

Ali Beiranvand steps up from the Esteghlal academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Ali Beiranvand has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

One of our own: Amir Ghoddos joins the Esteghlal first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Amir Ghoddos is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

In brief
