Sardar Azmoun retires from TM

[Medzdidz]

seeing how his mom is sick I dont think he wants to leave and live and play in western europe

I've got a feeling that wherever the goes his mom goes with him.

I don't know if this has already been said but him retiring from international duty makes him a lot more approachable to European clubs, no long trips on international duty and he won't be missing January for the Asian Cup.
Although I do think that this 'retirement' won't last long.

Wow it looks like he is for reall quitting TM for family reasons

God bless him and his family and best of luck to them all

I salute his decision.

Otherwise the mafia will never stop picking on him and his family.
The alternative would be for him to join them or pay them protection money, but he has too much character for that.

Now I wish all the best to him and his family. I hope he finds a top club, does great and come Asian cup the public will be begging for him to come back with nobody daring to speak against him again.


His rating on the front page is plain unfair. Anybody who had paid good attention saw that his performance in all three games was flawless and that almost every little move was on spot. Judged by his objectives on the field, this was a pure world class tournament by him.

I hope his mother gets well and he comes back soon.

Ok, lets see this scenario as an opportunity rather than a loss.

Gucci has already said farewell to TM and now also Sardar, even though I am 120% sure that in the case of Sardar, this is just a temporary thing.

So we have two of the forwards of TM gone for now.

Who can take their place right now. I am sure many of you would mention Kaveh Rezaei, which I agree. But who else is out there that can be a prospect for the future attacking line of TM?? Is Allahyar from U17 TM that just recently signed with SS too young? What about Shekari? Is he a forward and is he too young and inexperienced too??

Alipour impressed with Persepolis. Taremi can be slotted in as the top striker. It depends, really.

Allahyar is too young.

According to varzesh3 interview with Sardar:

- he has been thinking about this for four months
- he consulted CQ and JB
- his mother has an undisclosed illness
- his retirement is on a temporary basis because of family reasons.

Hopefully his mother will be OK. Some people do need to take a bit of a break for family reason, that's understandable and we should respect Sardar and hope his mother gets OK!

If this is temporary and for family reasons - i.e. spend more time with family. That is understandable. But if it's because of criticism, that's a cop out. If CQ OK'd it, then I will feel comfortable with Sardar's decision, as it must be a serious family illness to his mother (God forbid).

Guys this is all TEMPORARY... Can we please stop dragging this and acting like a bunch of high school girls with this drama?? 17 pages of a thread in one day is ridiculous

And LOL at the Iranian tabloids reporting Dejagah, Montazari, and Shojaei retiring from Team Melli.. The only one who may retire soon is Montazari. The rest still have a desire to play in the Asian Cup.

That is all from my rant. Thank you
