Match8 Aug 2026

Sepahan run riot against Esteghlal Ahvaz

4‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Majid Aliyari takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

An offer of $7.9M for Mehdi Hajsafi

Sepahan have gone to Padideh with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Padideh tell Sepahan: Ahmad Torabi 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.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

An offer of $3.1M for Mohammad Jahanbakhsh

Sepahan have gone to Padideh with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Vintage Ehsan Hajsafi — 8.09

At 36 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.09, and nobody on the pitch better.

Market10 Aug 2026

Rah Ahan come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Sepahan did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Boardroom10 Aug 2026

Sepahan go back to the board over Mohammad Hossein Sadeghi

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $211.5K — a club that wants Mohammad Hossein Sadeghi enough to be asked twice.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Omid Nourafkan signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Omid Nourafkan commits to Sepahan for another 4 years.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad3 Aug 2026

Ricardo Alves signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Ricardo Alves and Sepahan agree another 2 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Iván Sánchez wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Sepahan can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Ehsan Hajsafi calls time on his country

“146 caps was 146 more than the boy who started ever expected.” At 36 he has stepped away from the national side and has not stepped away from Sepahan.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Iván Sánchez wants to finish where he started

Every long career reaches the week the player starts thinking about the last one. He would like it to be at the club that first put him on a pitch, and Sepahan now know that too.

Boardroom3 Aug 2026

2 academy players handed senior numbers at Sepahan

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Market3 Aug 2026

Mohammad Reza Bordbar attracts admirers

The name of Mohammad Reza Bordbar has come up in conversations Sepahan were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Market3 Aug 2026

Vahid Noorafkan steps up from the Sepahan academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Vahid Noorafkan 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.

Market3 Aug 2026

Milad Rezaeian steps up from the Sepahan academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Milad Rezaeian 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.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Ricardo Alves's contract

24 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.
