🔻 حسن روشن, former national team and Persepolis player, about the Football Federation executive board’s justification regarding the 140 billion toman bonus Amir Ghalenoei, head coach of the national team, received, told Khabarvarzeshi: «What happened? Thank God, the team was eliminated! If the team had qualified, they would probably have given Ghalenoei and each of the players one province.»

🔹 Tahmorath Heydari, a member of the Football Federation executive board, after a meeting of the executive board said that the 140 billion toman bonus to Ghalenoei is «insignificant.»

🔹 Previously, Ghalenoei had also said that he had made a sacrifice and that instead of dollars, he had taken the bonus in rials.

🔹 In another part of his interview, about the continuation of Ghalenoei’s presence with the national team, Hassan Rohshan said: «If Ghalenoei is not the national team coach right now, then no one is there to replace him. But Ghalenoei also has to know that this is the end of the line and he must get the best result with the team.»
