TEHRAN (Iran News) – Esteghlal General Manager Amir Hossein Fathi resigned as his role following Andrea Stramaccioni’s exits his role in team management.
The Italian coach canceled his contract on Sunday and traveled to Rome early Monday.
Esteghlal has moved top of Iran Professional League after about four years under the discipline-based approach of the Italian coach but he left his post after the Iranian club failed to respect contractual obligations.
The local media have reported that around 100 Esteghlal supporters have gathered outside Iran’s Ministry of Sport and Youth, which owns the club, to protest the incident.
Amir Hossein Fathi was appointed as Esteghlal GM in November 2018.
Earlier this week, Andrea Stramaccioni has resigned as coach of Esteghlal after the Iranian football club failed to respect contractual obligations.
Stramaccioni assistant Javad Zarincheh has been named as Esteghlal’s interim coach.
