Transfers, Rumours & Changes in Esteghlal - IPL 2012 - 2013

**yashar_fasihnia** · 05-12-2012, 10:57 AM

so guys,,, lets post here all transfer rumours about esteghlal this coming season. one cant deny this is an exciting period of the year

since i dont have any transfer rumours about esteghlal yet, i would like the following additions:

forward line,
atleast one of founike sy, karim ansarifard or farhad majidi. my preference is founike sy and farhad. with one of them coming, we can let either milad or goran leave. milad has been crap ever since his injury. keep arash. maybe even try to get igor castro?

midfield line,
i was hoping we could get petrovic atleast assuming we cant get januario, but it seems he signed with mes kerman. otherwise just go for ghasem hadadifar.
we need to keep jabbari, zandi, ando, samuel, khosro and unfortunately kianosh

keep sharifat and yousefi also.

defense,
get atleast either jalal hosseini or farshid talebi. keep hanif, pejman and meysam hosseini. keep amirabadi, shirzad and hamoudi although im not convinced with any of them. if we can get mahini instead of these guys, much better.
let go of azizadeh and elong.

GK,
ofcourse retain rahmati. for reserves, its gonna be difficult to get one cos whoever comes knows that he will be a substitute, so chances are very low we get a good GK. i guess we need to get a GK from 1st division or jsut continue with zarin saed and our youth GK.

overall, our starting 11 doesnt need much change, maybe if we can add a better striker and either a good full back or move khosro to RB and get a good creative midfield. wat we need to add is more of depth players.

sharifat
shirzad
meydavoudi
azizzadeh
amirabadi
out!

jabbari is leaving us too.

The players who should leave IMO:
Hamoudi
Azizzadeh
Shirzad
Elong Elong
Sharifat
Meydavoudi
Also Mazloumi!

Btw, I'm saying Hamoudi should leave because the wingbacks should be Heydari and Hosseini (unless they can get Mahini), and Amirabadi would be a decent last-resort, considering his experience and how he can play on either the right or left.

Esteghlal headcoach has been officially selected and will be announced Tuesday, according to Rasoulinejad.

Zarinche has said Clemente is Esteghlal choice of foreign headcoach. This would be the best news for blue fans if it happens.

Esteghlal should remain focused on bringing qualified head coach for next season and maintian the current squad (the best in IPL) with addition of a few players in centerback and goalie as back ups, and goal scorer in forward.

merci mansour khan, hope clemente gets chosen! however, with him being so fussy last time over TM, and esteghlal management being so unorganized specially in terms of salaries, im afraid he will quit and not work for long with us

Here is the game they have played....
Ghalenooe had been contacted by the " hayat Modireh ) during the season,,and was promised the Esteghlal job,when Estteghlal management were convinsed Mazloomi is waisting the talents and the investments...how ever,fatollah Zadeh,who was playing double agent had given promises of his own to Mazloomi,to keep him happy till season ended......now, that every body wants to bring Ghalenoee in....fatolah zadeh,is pretending he did know anything about it..and pretended he may get fired too...justto save face in front of Mazloomi and his supporters......
It is all BS...between fatollah Zadeh and the Management.
