Reza Ghoochannejad parts company with Al Kuwait SC.

Reza Ghoochannejad has left Al Kuwait SC  after the club decided to terminate his contract.

Al Qadisiya of Kuwait and Iran s Persepolis have already shown their interests in signing the striker.

Ghoochannejad vs Qatar

Rumors of the club losing interest started a few months back. The most expensive signing of Kuwait SC was not up to the expectations of their hierarchy and hence the club has thought about offloading Ghoochannejad by January or the winter transfer window. Kuwait football clubs and their FA is unlike the rich Persian Gulf States such as Qatar , Saudi Arabia and UAE in spending on football. The professional players bought by Kuwaiti clubs re normally the ones who are cheaper and lower in standards than the ones that head to the other 3 countries.

Ghoochannejhad played a key role for Team Melli in the 2015 AFC Asian Cup. He scored two late goals against the UAE and Iraq in Australia.
Ghoochannejhad started his career at Heerenveen and has already played at Go Ahead Eagles, Cambuur, Sint-Truiden and Standard Liege.

Ghoochannejad “Gucci” set for Charlton switch

Team Melli striker Reza Ghoochannejhad is poised to become the fourth Standard Liege player to join Charlton Athletic on loan.

The Championship side, who were taken over by Standard Liege’s owner Roland Duchatelet earlier this month, have already brought in Astrit Ajdarevic, Yohann Thuram-Ulien and Anil Koc on temporary deals.

And now Chris Powell is closing in on Ghoochannejhad as he bids to guide the south London team away from the relegation zone.

Ghoochannejhad, 26, started out at Heerenveen and has previously spent time at Go Ahead Eagles and Cambuur.

A prolific stint at Sint-Truiden, which yielded 17 league goals in 33 appearances, prompted Standard Liege to snap him up during the 2012/13 season.
