Gholizadeh Continues Under Doctors' Care; Esteghlal's Third Injured Player Hopeful for Quick Return

Esteghlal's young winger also got injured after the match against Al Gharafa, but he is hopeful of a quick return to group training.

According to "Varzesh Se", Ismail Qolizadeh, the 21-year-old and young winger of the Esteghlal football team, was injured after the team's recent match against Qatar's Al-Gharafa, so that the worries of the technical staff of the blue-coats will increase on the eve of the continuation of the tournament.

This young player, who played in the main line-up of Esteghlal in the Asian confrontation against Al-Gharafa and is considered one of the key and influential pieces in Sohrab Bakhtiarizadeh's tactical ideas, felt pain in his leg after the end of this match. The same issue caused Qolizadeh to not attend the recovery training of the Blue Poshans like Yaser Asani and to rest.

Although initial estimates show that the speed winger's injury is not so acute and serious, he is currently undergoing treatment under the supervision of the club's medical staff. In the Blues camp, there is hope that with the efforts of the medical team, Qolizadeh will be able to get the conditions for the game and reach the crucial match against Golgohar Sirjan.

However, the final status of this player to accompany his team has not yet been determined precisely. Undoubtedly, if the severity of Gholizadeh's injury is such that it keeps him out of the field for a while, Sohrab Bakhtiarizadeh's hands will be more limited in the offensive phase and it will be very difficult for the head coach of Blue Poshan in the future games.
