Will Branko Ivankovic Return to Iran?
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Former Persepolis coach Branko Ivankovic is reportedly a candidate to replace Farhad Majidi in Iran’s U-23 football team.
The Croat was sacked as Al Ahli coach in mid-September and Saudi Arabian media reports suggest that he has been linked with a move to the Chinese Super League.
Ivankovic has also been linked with Iran U-23 football team.
Iran has a difficult task at the 2020 AFC U-23 Championship in Thailand, since the team has been drawn in Group C along with Uzbekistan, Korea Republic and China.
Ivankovic won title with Iran U-23 football team at the 2002 Asian Games.
