Nekounam - Rahmati

PLDC - Seoul, Javad Nekounam and Mehdi Rahmati have caught a cold during their trip from Bangkok to Seoul.


Both of these Esteghlal players are sick, due to catching a cold during their six hour trip from Thailand to South Korea, and are now under the watch of their team's doctors.

However, both of these players should recover in the next couple of days and start training.

In other news, FC Seoul has not provided Esteghlal with a field for training, and Iranian officials are now looking for proper facilities. The Blues of Tehran might have to practice on artificial turf for their first few training sessions.

After Esteghlal's experience in Thailand and South Korea, it's fair to say that eastern Asia hasn't been kind to the Iranian club.
