A Decisive Tournament for Sardar Azmoun
A Russian media outlet considered the Qatar World Cup a good opportunity for the Iranian national team striker to return to his peak.
One of the players invited to Iran is Sardar Azmoun. Azmoun suffered an injury in recent weeks and underwent treatment under the supervision of the national team’s coaches.
This forward, who is a member of Germany’s Bayer Leverkusen club, has not had a good season with this team, and his statistics are not comparable to his time with Zenit Saint Petersburg and the Russian league.
The Russian site Vedomosti took this opportunity to examine Sardar Azmoun’s situation in the Qatar World Cup, and in its report wrote that Sardar Azmoun is experiencing the worst year of his professional career. After Zenit, he was unsuccessful in Germany and almost lost his place in the national team. The Qatar World Cup is a good opportunity for this Iranian player to return to his peak.
This media outlet considered the performance of the Iranian national team and Sardar Azmoun in the World Cup to be decisive for this forward and his fate with Bayer Leverkusen, writing that participating in a strong tournament is also important for Sardar’s club career future. The period of slip and decline at Bayer has been prolonged, and it is unlikely that this ambitious team will continue to keep an expensive but goalless striker on the bench.
