Emotional Message from Former Isfahan Football Star Hosseini: I Came with Love and Leave with Respect

The respected and veteran Iranian football winger announced the end of his playing career in an emotional post.

According to the report of "Varzesh Se", Mohammad Reza Hosseini, a former player of Zob Ahan and Sepahan teams, who has played in Fajr Sepasi, Gol Ghar, Nasaji and Aluminum, decided to announce the end of his acting career on the day of the Isfahan derby, when he appeared as an expert on the provincial television network.

He also officially said goodbye to the world of football by publishing a message on his personal page. The text of his emotional message is as follows:

"The end of a path, the beginning of longing for an endless love...

Today, writing these few lines is more difficult for me than every game and every decisive moment of my football career; Because I am going to say goodbye to a part of my life that I have fought for with love, effort and all my being for years.

Football was not just a sport or profession for me; It was a dream that shaped my life, a path in which I experienced victory and defeat, sweet and bitter days, injuries and hardships and learned lessons that will always be with me beyond the green rectangle.

I had the honor of wearing the jersey of Fajr Sepasi Shiraz, Zob Ahn Isfahan, Sepahan Isfahan, Golghar Sirjan, Nasaji Mazandaran and Arak Aluminum. Each of these shirts is a part of my life path; Memories that will remain in my heart forever with respect and honor.

"All these years, I tried to be loyal to the shirt I'm wearing, to fight with all my strength and to be proud of the responsibility I've accepted."

Hosseini continued his message:

"I sincerely thank all the coaches, teammates, managers, fans and those who were by my side along the way. I am also grateful to my family who supported me all these years and endured the hardships and distances of this path by my side.

Today, with a heart full of memories and respect for the past, I have decided to end my professional acting career. It is not easy to say goodbye to football; Because a part of me will always remain on the ground, in the sound of the stands and in moments that will never be repeated.

But every path, even if it started with love, will reach its final station one day. For me, what remains is the pride of the years I walked on this path, the people I met and the memories I will never forget.

I say goodbye to football, but my respect and love for the game will remain forever.

From today, a new chapter in my life begins; A different season, with experiences that football taught me and memories that will always be part of my identity. I came with love, I fought with honor and I leave with honor. Goodbye football…

With respect and thanks, Seyyed Mohammad Reza Hosseini"
