Iran striker Taremi joins UAE Pro League leaders Al Wasl
Mehdi Taremi arrives at the club for an undisclosed amount, bringing a wealth of experience from his spells at Porto and Inter Milan.
Iranian footballer Mehdi Taremi has made history as he joined UAE Pro League leaders Al Wasl from Olympiacos, according to the club's official announcement on Saturday. The 34-year-old forward posed with the Al Wasl jersey, confirming the move, though the financial details remain undisclosed. Transfermarkt reports that Taremi's contract with the UAE side extends until June 30, 2027.
Known for his experience gained from stints at Porto and Inter Milan, Taremi was a key player for the Iranian team during the 2026 World Cup in North America, where Iran was eliminated in the group stage after drawing all three matches. Taremi's transfer bolsters Al Wasl's squad, which has started the season strongly with two consecutive wins, topping the UAE Pro League table.
The Al Wasl team is also set to participate in the AFC Champions League Elite, following a third-place finish in the domestic league last season. The club is scheduled to face Saudi Arabia's Al Qadsiah in their first match on September 14.
