Ali Ghorbani just signed for Sumgayit FK in the Premyer Liqasi (the premier league for Azerbaijan). The club has a decent track record of signing Iranian players, and this year, the club qualified for the Europa League. I figured I'd make a thread for Ghorbani as he's played abroad before. The league also has a few other Persian Legionnaires and I was wondering whether I should make a thread for them?

Maybe we could do one big super thread for all of our players in the League instead of separate ones?

hope he is very successful

It’s official, Adam Hemati has moved to Azerbaijan to play. Hopefully he can lead his team to glory and get picked up by a team in Europe.

Is Hemati good? He always seemed to me like a player with the right connection

Yes he is a decent player - not TM material of course, but overall a decent player for Iranian league standards. The connection thing of course helped him get in the door but if he wasn’t a decent player branko would have never signed him. He’s also a good kid - I wish him well in Azerbaijan.

He’s Saeed Rad’s grandson so some people think that’s a connection. However he’s a perfectly normal player, not bad, not great. He was a loyal servant of Persepolis.

He down graded i guess. Started From Ligue 1 to Azerbaijan league !

Isn’t Sharifi on his team? PP has a connection to this club it seems

Ali Ghorbani is also on this team. Should be a joint thread for both of them.
