In the upcoming World Cup, the Iranian national team may face unexpected losses.

The English press reports that forward Mehdi Taremi may not receive permission to enter the U.S.

The 33-year-old representative of Piraeus "Olympiacos" has served in his country's naval forces, which could become the main reason for landing on an undesirable list.

Earlier, FIFA stated that it would do everything to ensure that similar cases do not ruin the football celebration, but, according to the press, the president of the Iranian Football Federation, Mehdi Taj, is already looking for replacement players.
