PLDC - Tehran, After the farewell of Farhad Majidi, Amir Ghalenoei said, “Majidi is considered a good asset for Esteghlal and he will surely stay beside us.”


He further added, “After Farhad decided to bid farewell to football, I argued with him for two days, but he did not accept to stay until the end of the season. I talked to him and asked him to stay and bid farewell in the last match against Tractor Sazi in Tehran, but he did not accept it.”

The head coach of Esteghlal said, “He said that he wanted to bid farewell at his peak, which is admirable. Also, he wanted to be present at the coaching classes which are also very good, and he will be beside Esteghlal in the future.”

Ghalenoei added that. “It is now 48 hours that I am talking to Majdi and I have also talked to Farzad (Farhad’s brother) so that he changes his mind. Even Amir Arab tried to mediate and advice him to change his mind, but Farhad did not accept it.”
