GOAL - Iran international striker Ali Karimi has hit back at some of the
criticism he has received since joining Doha outfits Qatar SC from Bayern
Munich.
Karimi, brought from Bayern Munich during the pre-season, failed to score in
his side’s first three outings and has been accused of lacking enthusiasm.
The 2004 Asian Player of the Year spent two unsuccessful years with the
German giants and has even threatened to leave his new club.
"“I don’t search for excuses here, but you just cannot judge any player
after just three matches played with his new side,” a dismayed Karimi told
daily Al-Raya on Wednesday.
“What’s happening in the media is just unfair, and the supporters are not
making things any easier. This being said, I am ready to leave Qatar SC if
the administration decides so, and won’t be asking for any indemnity.
"I am very serious about this point, as I personally am not ready to make
money while failing to prove myself in this side,” he added.
As about the possible reaction of the club when hearing his statement,
Karimi has this to say: “I don’t want to get the club administration
embarrassed over this. I am just playing fair, the way I always did in my
career. Still, I am fully committed to improve my overall performance, for
the good sake of the squad,” he completed.
