Former Iran coach Mohammadhossein Mirshamsi has been nominated in the final three nominees for the 2017 Beach Soccer Best Coach.

Brazil’s Gilberto Costa, Portugal’s Mario Narciso and Mirshamsi will go up for the award, with the winner to be announced at Stars Night 2017 in Dubai on Nov. 4.

While Mirshamsi is no longer at the helm in Iran, he left an impressive legacy for his successor to continue.

His Iran team proved a cut above at the AFC Beach Soccer Championship in Malaysia as they swept aside all in their path to lift the title before ‘Team Melli’ earned a podium finish at the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup.

Mirshamsi’s nomination follows on from Iran goalkeeper Peyman Hosseini’s selection among the top three in the world, with Iranian representation in the Best Player category also a possibility.
