U-17 World Cup: Iran’s Darvish Aali among Five Asian Players to Look Out for
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran’s Erfan Darvish Aali is among the five players to look out for at the FIFA U-17 World Cup Indonesia 2023.
With the action kicking off on Friday, the-AFC.com shines the spotlight on one player from each of Asia's five representatives.
Darvish Aali played every minute of Iran's campaign in the AFC U-17 Asian Cup Thailand 2023.
Although the title eluded the Central Asian side, their route to the semi-final included a 2-0 win over Korea Republic in the group stage with Aali playing a vital role, with the defender expected to do the same again in Indonesia 2023.
Gaku Nawata (Japan), Kim Myeong-jun (Korea Republic), Lazizbek Mirzaev (Uzbekistan) and Arkhan Kaka Putra (Indonesia) are other players to look out for.
