Coach Amir Ghalenoei
Borin in Tehran onJuly, 9th 1964
Appointed: July 2006
Following the inability of Branko Ivankovic to fully harness the potential of the Iran national team at the FIFA World Cup finals in Germany last summer, the Iranian football federation turned to local coach Amir Ghalenoei.
Fresh from his domestic success with Esteghlal, who he guided to the Iran Pro League title at the end of the 2005-06 season, Ghalenoei was charged with rejuvenating a demoralised squad and qualifying for the finals of the AFC Asian Cup.
Ghalenoei started his coaching career with Esteghlal Ahvas in 2002 before joining Esteghlal 12 months later, guiding the Tehran club to second place in the league in his first season in charge. One year later the club finished third in the Iran Pro League before finally winning the title in Ghalenoei
