TEHRAN, Nov 6 (OPA) — The Serbian manager of Al Nasr delivered strong backing for Iranian international Mehdi Ghayedi in his latest media remarks following a successful continental fixture against a Qatari side. Ghayedi, who has been a standout performer for the club in the United Arab Emirates, earned praise from the coaching staff for his technical output and tactical discipline on the pitch.

The strategic endorsement comes at a critical juncture for Al Nasr as the team navigates a demanding schedule across domestic and regional tournaments. The manager stressed that his faith in the Iranian winger remained absolute, countering external skepticism and highlighting Ghayedi's consistent work ethic in training sessions held in Dubai.

Since moving to the Gulf state, Ghayedi has established himself as a central figure in the tactical setup of Al Nasr. His ability to break down defensive blocks has provided the squad with distinct attacking leverage, drawing continuous attention from analysts and regional media outlets covering the Persian Gulf leagues.

Looking ahead, the coaching staff expects Ghayedi to maintain his current trajectory as Al Nasr prepares for upcoming fixtures in the regional calendar. Maintaining consistency will be vital for the squad's championship ambitions, with the Iranian forward anticipated to retain a primary role in the starting lineup.
