A Wave of Support for a Club Veteran
A recent online video featuring Jafar Mokhtari-Far, a former star of the Esteghlal football club, has drawn significant attention and prompted a swift, supportive response from within the club’s management.
The video, shared by a social media activist, depicted the former national team player alongside the individual, who voiced strong criticisms regarding Mokhtari-Far’s personal financial situation, directing remarks at football officials and specifically the management of Esteghlal FC. Notably, the veteran player himself remained silent throughout the clip.
Club Leadership Responds with Reassurance
The publication of the video, which included details of the former star’s personal life, has been met with disapproval from fellow club veterans and current management. Ali Tajernia, the acting General Manager of Esteghlal, personally contacted Mokhtari-Far to check on his well-being, expressing his concern over the incident.
Further demonstrating the club’s unified stance, other key figures, including team supervisor Bijan Taheri, have also followed the matter closely. In public statements, Taheri strongly condemned the actions of the individual in the video, describing the behavior as “unbecoming” of the respect owed to the club’s veterans.
Reaffirming Institutional Care
In his remarks, the team supervisor emphasized that Tajernia and the club’s officials have been actively monitoring and addressing the welfare of all former players, including Mokhtari-Far, in recent months. The management’s position is that established, internal channels are the appropriate avenue for support, rendering the public nature of such videos unnecessary. The incident has thus highlighted the club’s internal mechanisms for veteran care and its commitment to addressing concerns through direct dialogue.
