Adel Ferdowsipour advised his colleague not to take the place of another host.
Hamid Mohammadi, a sports presenter and announcer on television, talked about how he got acquainted with and started working with Adel Ferdowsipour. He said, ‘Working with Adel was behind the scenes, meaning my voice was only on some parts of the ’90 program items, and this collaboration continued until I was offered to host Football 120 in 2013.’
Mohammadi continued his talk about the offer to host the sports program from the perspective of ‘2’. He said, ‘I am saying this for the first time.’
When Mr. Jahangir Kousari stepped down from hosting the program for reasons that you probably know, the program producer contacted me the same year and said they had considered me to host the new season of the program.
This offer was very tempting for me because the sports program was very popular from the perspective of ‘2’, but I didn’t accept it. Maybe if the name, time, style, and context of the program had changed, I would have considered the offer. But the idea of Mr. Kousari leaving his seat and me sitting in the exact same place, never, never. In fact, one of the people I consulted with about this was Adel Ferdowsipour himself.
