Kasra Taheri wants to return to Russia via Armenia from Iran

Iranian striker Kasra Taheri is currently in his homeland but is looking for a way to return to Russia through Armenia. This was reported by www.euro-football.ru.

He plays for the Kazan football club "Rubin". Taheri was stranded in the country as tensions between Iran and Israel escalated, as the airspace over the Islamic Republic is closed to civilian aircraft. “We hope he can return to his city.

He needs to reach the Armenian border, which is thousands of kilometers away,” said Kazan team's head coach Rashid Rahimov in an interview with RIA Novosti. The coach also emphasized that the club is in constant contact with the player.

According to "Rubin", Taheri plans to head towards Russia soon. Kasra Taheri is 18 years old and joined "Rubin" in February 2024. So far, he has played only six matches in the main squad and has not recorded any goals or assists yet.

Relations between the club and the player are ongoing, and his joining the team is expected soon. Taheri's return is crucial for "Rubin" in achieving their goals for the current season.
