Ferydoon Zandi
:
The German born Iranian player , eventually made up his mind to play for
Iran after a long debate and much thought by the young midfielder.
Eligible to play for either Iran or Germany , Zandi opted to play for
Team Melli to the rejoices of thousand of fans who petitioned him to
join.
Born in Emden , Germany from an
Iranian Father and a German Mother, Zandi played his early football in SC
Freiburg before he
transferred to VfB Lübeck where he really caught
the eyes of the critics and German national team selectors. His splendid
display for the club earned him a call to the German youth team.
Zandi season with Kaiseslautern was less than satisfactory as he rarely
had playing time for the club. He is distained to leave at the end of
the season.
