My  contract with Persepolis will expire at the end of the current season  and for the next season nothing is certain right now. I am going to play  one more season with the Tehran-based club and then hang up my boots,\u201d  the 35-year-old said.  <\/p>\n<p>Hashemian joined Bayern Munich in 2004 after playing for Hamburger SV  and Bochum. He was forced to leave Bayern since the things didn\u2019t go  well as he expected.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI definitely don\u2019t regret because of joining Bayern. Everybody likes  to play in the big club such a Bayern and I think I made a good  decision. Bayern always has so many top players and you have a difficult  job to be in starting lineup. I was not lucky there,\u201d Hashemian stated.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><span id=\"Newsdetails2_lblBody\"> Hashemian looks forward to work as a head coach in the new future. \u201cI  am not that kind of person who accepts what the others say in coaching  role. I want to be number one and have obtained FIFA coaching license,\u201d  Hashemian said. <\/span><\/div>\n<p><span id=\"Newsdetails2_lblBody\"> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TEHRAN, May 9 (MNA) &#8212; Persepolis striker Vahid Hashemian will retire from football at the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22617,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[87],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12146","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-c14-ipl-league-persian-gulf-cup"],"views":8848,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12146","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22617"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12146"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12146\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12146"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12146"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12146"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
