Taremi Shortlisted for AFC International Player of the Week
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Following his eye-catching goal in 2-1 win against Gil Vicente, Taremi has been shortlisted for the AFC International Player of the Week.
The Iranian forward will have to vie with Takumi Minamino (Liverpool, Japan), Takehiro Tomiyasu (Arsenal, Japan), Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur, Korea Republic), Sam Kerr (Chelsea, Australia), Tameka Yallop (West Ham, Australia), Yukinari Sugawara (AZ Alkmaar, Japan), Hwang Ui-jo (Bordeaux, Korea Republic), Cameron Devlin (Heart of Midlothian, Australia) and Shakhzod Ubaydullaev (Energetik-BGU Minsk, Uzbekistan) to be voted as the Player of the Week.
Of the many goals scored by Taremi in the past two years, few were better than this one.
His electric interception followed by a sensational 45-yard clip had to be seen to be believed, and was the mark of a striker at the peak of his powers.
