Lashkari: We’re playing in the Holy City for now / Our list is filled

A spokesman for the Persepolis club said: “Mr. Darwish and Hashemian have a regular meeting to strengthen and repair the team, and what the coach says. We have started the new season with strength and I have to thank the board for the stability they created.

Mustafa Lashgari, a spokesman for Persepolis Club, said in Tehran’s Salam program about the announcement of the case of Alireza Biranvand: “The case of Alireza Biranvand was finally announced. Congratulations to the fans who have been waiting for this to happen for five days. Many things happened in nine days, but the end was that part of the story was happy because the entire Persepolis series was waiting for the verdict. During this time there were many people involved and thank them. There was a lot of inaccuracies. The Board of Directors has been following the case and defending the right of the club and the demands of the fans from the first day to the result.

He said about the recruitment of Serge Oriyah and his condition: After Mr. Vahid Hashemian’s election as the manager, he introduced players in posts that needed to be strengthened and repaired. For the right defense, Serge Orie was also a candidate. He went to Türkiye and took the tests to the camp, and after the technical staff consent was announced, negotiations and contracts were concluded. He has a good and good history. He has been in the big clubs and is the most prominent and the biggest player to ever come to our football. According to my talk with the technical staff, it will be ready within the next few weeks.

A spokesman for the Persepolis club responded to a question about some players leaving the team to recruit new people: Yes, our list has been filled but now no player is separated and everyone is in training. Which player is separated is the decision that the coach makes. Mr Hashemian and CEO are constantly having meetings with each other to strengthen the squad, and whatever the manager says will be the same. The technical issues are under their supervision.

Mustafa Lashgari said about the stadium where Persepolis holds its home games: We will now play games at Quds Stadium. Our priority after release is this stadium. Of course, the club’s view was to be able to host any capacity at Azadi Stadium, but there seems to be no conditions. Therefore, according to the technical staff, we have chosen Quds Stadium between the two stadiums of Quds and Takhti.

Responding to a question about the criticism of the club’s CEO, he added: “It is natural that every CEO has his own weaknesses and strengths. In order to criticize Mr. Darwish or any other person, one must pay attention to his overall performance during his career. No manager wants to leave poor performance. Good performance is a record for the manager. Every success for him makes him proud, excited and proud. On the other hand, Persepolis is a big club. Each manager also has its strengths and weaknesses. You have to see what the result of these things has ended. Persepolis won various championships during their activities. Mr. Darwish has tried to create a better and more comfortable atmosphere in Persepolis since he came. Good things happened in the structural, administrative and economic sector. For the next season, Persepolis came in power.

Mustafa Lashgari emphasized: Persepolis always enters the championship and fights. “Championship” is a word attached to Persepolis. It was also very planned for the new season. The last season was not over that we started with power for the new season. We have to thank the Honorable Board of Directors with the support they had to the CEO and the stability they created. If we had made changes, it would not have been clear what we were doing now. A few months ago, when rumors of managerial changes occurred, if the board was not coordinated by the board of directors and the CEO, and we were not supported today, we had other conditions today. The same plan of the Board of Directors helped to start the transfers sooner and stronger, and we did not face the crisis in the face of challenges that were not in control of the club.

“During this time, we also had a crisis and the challenge of the imposed war against our country, which was natural that had its own consequences,” he said. The board of directors to maintain the organizational stability of the club there was a more positive impact. They managed all the things well. At this point, a good coordination and cohesion between the board and the CEO made the club speed faster to close the team. We had a very good camp, and now everything is going as well.
