The plight of Masoud Shojaei-Soleimani , took an interesting turn today.

A local website quoting Real Valladolid club insider said that the club roster is full with its quota of foreign players (Non Spanish Passport holders), hence the chances of the Iranian Shojaei joining Real Valladolid is quite remote, unless Shojaei changes his citizenship to become Spanish ! Shojaei has been having talks with the La Liga club but the outcome of the talks was not publicly announced.  This unofficial announcement is the first hint of the outcome of the Iranian player’s talk with the Spanish club.

Masoud Shojaei, the Team Melli forward has been released by Osasuna and is a free agent , which means that he can sign for any club he wishes for free and no transfer fees exchanged. However, Shaojei so far has found it quite difficult to select a suitable club in the La Liga , his preferred league.

The Team Melli player, Shojaei, has gone through a tough period of injury lasting over one season. On his recovery , he found it difficult to win a place in the starting line up of Osasuna and sometimes he even did not make the bench. Eventually Osasuna released him. With the World Cup starting less than a year, it is crucial for Shojaei to play regularly at the highest level possible in order to make the roster, although Queiroz had a every unusual trust in the player’s ability by picking him for the squad and playing him as soon as he recovered from his injury. Shojaeoi, though , has yet to shine for Team Melli and answer Queiroz confidence in him, no doubt the injury has had it effect on this skillful player.
