If I wasn't in the tractor, I wouldn't have gone to the army; / Alireza Biranvand's harsh words and controversial accusation!
Alireza Biranvand spoke about the extension of his three-year contract and the events surrounding it with sharp and interesting statements.
According to Sport Seh report, Alireza Biranvand apologized to the management, owner, technical staff and Tractor players for his words after the Esteghlal match yesterday by releasing a video, and then the news of his contract extension for three more seasons was published. Two events that linked his future to the Tabrizi club again after the tumultuous days of this goalkeeper.
These events happened a week after Biranvand's controversial interview at the end of the tie against Esteghlal. That night, while criticizing Tractor's financial conditions, he talked about his big decision to continue playing football, and the club immediately announced that he was removed by Javad Nekonam's decision and his case was referred to the disciplinary committee.
Now, in a detailed interview with the official Traktor media, Biranvand talked about his relationship with the fans and the people's behavior in the Tabriz market, and in addition to defending Javad Nekonam, he explained about his presence next to Yasser Asani after the Esteghlal game. Also, by announcing the time of his deployment to the army, he says that he is ready to accompany the tractor against the sailors and the oil industry, and he will return to this team after the end of his service. Read his full speech below.
In the most difficult conditions, I chose the tractor
I chose tractor in the most difficult situation of my sports life. You all understand football. When I chose the tractor, I knew what bad things would happen to me. When I saw the support of the fans and their encouragement, I felt less homesick for my family because I saw you as family. In these two and a half years, I didn't feel alone and I am relieved to be here.
You became a member of my family and maybe if it wasn't for you, I would have had a really hard time helping Tractor in these three years and with the things that happened during this time. With you, we were able to win the championship and be in the elite league for two years. With your support, we are excited that we were able to increase Iran's quota to 3+1. I know how much you love me and I am your dependent. I'm serious
I walked alone in the covered market of Tabriz
Let me say that in these two or three days, I was in Tabriz. After these events, there was an attack and I wanted to walk in Tabriz. I walked in the indoor market alone and saw how much you love me. I spoke out of compassion for the team and there is nothing behind the scenes. I am a controversial person and everyone knows me to be controversial, but I am proud to continue with you. Whoever he is, he will not leave these passionate fans.
My first, second and third priority is the tractor
My first, second and third priority in Iranian football is Tractor. I thank God that you were not fooled by cyberspace during this time. Things happened that boggle your mind. You are Turkish and I am Turkish, Turkish and Turkish are quick-tempered. I knew you might be upset with any reaction, but I apologize right here.
Nekunam's bad luck is that they took the tool away from him
I want to say about the technical staff, I am not an inexperienced player. Our technical staff is among the best teams. Mr. Nekunam has worked hard for the national team for many years and worked with great teams. Every coach has a style, but our coach's misfortune is that the tools were taken away from him. Turabi, Hashemnejad and Igor are not, and this issue will certainly disturb the rhythm of our game. But pay attention, despite these injuries, we are the team that the fans want. Our team has achieved good results and I ask you to support us in this situation.
In the second half of the season, four or five good players will be added
We are trying to bring the team to the second half of the season and the technical staff has decided to add four or five good players to the team. Let me say one thing, we were very worried during Mr. Skocic's time and what he said in the half season was that don't worry, we just have to be among the top three or four teams and we will be better in the second half. We now have better results than Mr. Skocic's team. Don't worry, we will continue this process.
I went to Asani to say hello
After the Esteghlal game, Yasir Asani was injured, and as one of the elders of the team, I considered it my duty to greet the player who was left alone and on the bench. I have a duty to do this work and there was no other intention in this work. Yasir Asani could not believe that I was there. After all, Esteghlal is Iran's representative in Asia. You know that Golgohar and Esteghlal represent Iran and I wanted to wish Esteghlal success.
I have to go to work, although I really don't want to
I made a decision to go to this service as soon as possible and peace will return to me. 100% I have to go to the service, although I really don't want to go. I wanted to do everything not to leave you alone.
I was not in the tractor, I was not going to serve
Of course, if I wasn't in the tractor, maybe I wouldn't have gone to the service. In these two or three years, the discussion is not over and they want the tractor not to get results. If I was going from the tractor and I was anywhere else, I wouldn't be on the sidelines. Their grudge against me is endearing.
I decided to enlist myself from the first of November. I can proudly play in the sailor and oil industry game, but this is the decision of the technical staff. I might not see you after the 10th week until after the Nations Cup. I may not see your eight games. It is very difficult for me and I miss you. I hope to see you in the Naft Abadan game if I play. When my service is over, I will see you and continue my football with you.
I signed a three-year contract before I was sent on the first of November, and I hope you will accept my child to serve you.
