Khatir: Esteghlal managers did not call for the championship even once; Why are they putting me in front of the fans? Ali Khatir, member of the board of directors of the football association: The issue of the championship of Esteghlal was never raised in the board for me to agree or disagree with it. But if it comes up, I agree with love. Esteghlal club managers did not contact me even once to follow up on the matter and did not ask for the championship. Everyone knows how much I love independence and I will proudly defend the interests of this club as much as the law allows. I hope Estegalal win the game today.
