After being with his loved ones, the striker informed the team that he was in a safe place. Throughout this process, he felt a strong sense of responsibility not only as an athlete but also for his own safety.
Recent regional tensions further complicated his exit from the country.

It is known that this year’s World Cup is being held in 11 cities across the United States, and players from various countries are going through different hardships to join their squads on time. Mehdi Taremi’s dramatic journey once again shows what can happen at the intersection of football and real life.
