“The 30-year-old was subject to major criticism from his club Foolad as their head coach questioned his professionalism after arriving back late to camp after the mid-season break.
“He’s not featured in each of their last five league games in the Iran top-flight, and he’s agreed to mutually terminate his contract as the club looked to register a new foreign player Roberto Torres, who left Osuasana after 15 years at the club,” the report concluded.
With coach Arthur Zwane having said he wants a defensive midfielder, will he pass on Patosi, who plays his football as a number 8, 7, 10, and 11?
