Tasnim - Media reports suggest that Esteghlal Khuzestan coach Abdollah Veisi has been linked with a move to Sepahan of Isfahan football club.

Under guidance of Veisi, Esteghlal Khuzestan is a favorite to win the Iran Professional League for the first time in history.

The Ahvaz-based football team sits second in IPL table one point behind leader Persepolis.

Sepahan seems reluctant to continue with Croat coach Igor Stimac since the title holder is 11th in the table.

Veisi, who also coached Saba and Paykan, has played for Sepahan for seven years.
