Paykan Parts Ways with Sherzod Temirov

The 24-year-old striker joined Paykan from Persepolis in August last year and scored just one goal in 16 matches for the Tehran-based football team.

Temirov had also scored one goal for Persepolis in 10 matches.

Paykan has also parted company with its South Sudanese forward Tito Okello.

The team, headed by Mojtaba Hosseini, finished in 11th place in Iran’s 16-team league.
