The case of termination of Yasser Asani's contract is associated with ambiguity while Esteghlal says that the termination was not registered in the league organization and the second query from FIFA remains unanswered.
According to Mehr reporter, the complaint case against Yasser Asani, the winger and one of the best players of the current season of the Esteghlal football team, is gaining new dimensions every day. A case that, according to the allegations made about the termination of this player's contract and his presence in the blue team, can have important consequences for Esteghlal.
On one side of this story, Esteghlal club managers believe that the termination of the easy contract before the start of the new season of the Premier League has not been registered in the league organization, and for this reason, there is no threat to the club and the player. In support of their position, they also refer to the votes of the disciplinary committee of the Football Federation, which has announced the complaint of other clubs against Esteghlal regarding the use of this player in favor of the blue-coats. Also, the appeals committee of the Football Federation is supposed to deal with the complaints of Persepolis, Mes Shahrbabak and Sepahan clubs about Esteghlal's use of ease in face-to-face meetings with these teams, complaints that Esteghlal managers hope that their final votes will also be issued in favor of this club.
However, the argument of Esteghlal managers about the non-registration of the termination of the contract in the league organization is raised in a situation where they have confirmed the receipt of the termination letter from Asani. Ali Tajernia, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Acting CEO of Esteghlal Club, in a conversation with various television programs, has confirmed the original letter of termination of this player's contract. Saeed Fatahi, the head of Esteghlal football organization, has mentioned this issue many times, but both club officials believe that not registering the termination in the league organization will prevent problems for Esteghlal.
In one of his statements, Fatahi announced that Esteghlal Club has inquired from the International Football Federation (FIFA) to clarify the status of using ease. According to him, FIFA's first response was neither the explicit approval of the use of this player nor its rejection! This is despite the fact that Esteghlalis have never published FIFA's letter to add to the confusion.
According to Fatahi, the club's second letter to get more information has not been answered yet. The letter that Mehr Kasab reporter informed was sent to the federation on August 16, and the federation sent it to FIFA on the same date, but FIFA has not responded to it until today.
Despite this, the head of Esteghlal Football Organization continued to emphasize that even without receiving the final answer, the use of ease will not cause any problems for this club and the result of the investigations will be in favor of Esteghlal.
Ali Taghernia also explained the details of this case in one of the TV programs. Pointing out that the letter of termination of the contract was sent to the club by Asani's lawyer, he claimed that the initial dispute between the player and Esteghlal was over receiving wages, which was resolved in a short period of time, and that there was no termination from the player's side and it was only a financial dispute. According to Tajernia, no new contract was concluded between the parties after this incident.
The publication of Yasir Asani's contract termination letter in cyberspace and the statements of Esteghlal club officials about the player's contract status provided the basis for other clubs to enter this case. In the meantime, Persepolis club has referred the issue to the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) citing the published letter and the statements of Esteghlal managers. The protestors believe that due to the closed transfer window, Esteghlal has no legal right to be part of this team.
In this season, Esteghlal has used Yaser Asani in all their matches in the Premier League and the Asian Elite League. An issue that doubles the importance of determining the assignment of this case. If the complaint of the protesting clubs is ultimately successful, the blue-collar players will face significant disciplinary and legal consequences, although the final fate of this case depends on the decision of the competent football authorities.
