The Sport 3 website and the Fars news agency published a document that shows that FIFA, in response to a question from the Esteghlal club regarding foreign players, allowed this club to re-contract its players from the previous season. Of course, Esteghlal asked about Andong, Antonio Aden and Moussa Ganfo from FIFA. In paragraph 47 of FIFA's response to Astagalal, it is written: "FIFA reminds that according to what was explicitly stated in the decision that is being appealed, the appellant was simply denied registration of new players." And the more important point is section 48: "Apparently, the players who were already on the appellant's registered list in the last sports season, regardless of whether their contracts expired, were canceled or their registration was cancelled, are not considered new players, and therefore, the appellant can register them again." In recent months, Persepolis and a number of Iranian Premier League clubs have deemed it illegal for the Albanian star to play, citing Yasser Assani's one-sided exit from Estegalal last summer and given that Estegalal's transfer window is closed until January 2027.
