原文:Sardar Azmoun left out as Iran announce World Cup 2026 squad
经验丰富的前锋阿兹蒙没有被列入 30 人名单,该名单将于 6 月 1 日减至 26 人。
Experienced forward Sardar Azmoun was a glaring omission as Iran named their preliminary World Cup squad before departing for a pre-tournament training camp.
Azmoun, who was reportedly expelled from the national team for a perceived act of disloyalty to the government amid the US-Israel war on Iran, was not among the 30 players named in the squad on Saturday.
The 31-year-old striker, who plays his club football in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for Dubai’s Shabab Al-Ahli, upset the Iranian authorities in March by posting a picture on his Instagram feed of a meeting with Dubai’s ruler, Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, according to reports in Iranian media.
A report on the Fars News Agency in March quoted “an informed source within the national team” as saying Azmoun had been expelled from the squad.该球员后来删除了这张照片,但仍然受到国家电视台的痛斥。
阿兹蒙在为国家队出场的 91 场比赛中攻入 57 粒进球,并在过去两届世界杯中都是伊朗队的一员。
Iran’s forward line at the World Cup will be led by Mehdi Taremi, who has played in major European football leagues and is currently plying his trade at Olympiacos FC in the top tier of Greek football.
The 30-member squad will travel to Turkiye on Monday for a training camp, friendlies and to complete visa applications before heading to the United States, head coach Amir Ghalenoei said.
梅利队将返回安塔利亚,他们三月份在那里训练和踢友谊赛。

到 6 月 1 日,世界杯参赛阵容必须缩减至 26 人。
“Selecting 30 players for this final training camp ahead of the World Cup was the most difficult technical decision of my coaching career,” Ghalenoei told the Iranian football federation website, adding he had selected players solely on “technical criteria”.
