In a quick interview by phone with Navad TV show, Ali Kaffashian told the show presenter Adel Ferdowsipour that “For all practical purposes, Queiroz has already started his job with Team Melli. We are only awaiting the signing of the contract.”

Kaffashian said “The final version of the contract is ready , and we will email it to him on Tuesday”

Ferdowsipour. Normally quite sharp at these instances, neglected to ask Kaffashian what is the nature of the work that Queiroz has started doing with Team Melli while he is away from Iran and the players!

So, if we to believe the President of the FFIRI  ( and the customary caution is strongly advised here), we have congratulate the fans of Team Melli as Queiroz has already started his work with the Team, albeit on remote control from long distance. The trivial matter of a Legal Contract will be sorted out somehow or another by Kaffashian, no doubt.
