Marcos Paqueta Nominated to Lead Persepolis
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Brazilian coach Marcos César Dias de Castro, known as Marcos Paquetá, has been nominated to take charge of Iran’s Persepolis football club.
The 65-year-old coach, who currently leads Algerian team CR Belouizdad, has also been linked with a move to Egyptian giant Zamalek.
Italian coach Gianni De Biasi, Portuguese Jose Vitor dos Santos Peseiro as well as Bosnian-born Swiss professional football coach Vladimir Petkovic had also been shortlisted to lead the Iranian team.
Persepolis parted company with its head coach Yahya Golmohammadi in early January and is going to hire a new trainer as soon as possible.
