PFDC - ISTANBUL, Encouraging news from Iran's training camp in Istanbul arrived on Tuesday, regarding the recovery of Team Melli winger Ashkan Dejagah.


Team doctors and physiotherapists confirmed the 25-year-old is recovering well from his thigh injury and is likely to be able to participate in Iran's World Cup qualifiers in Uzbekistan (June 3) and against Qatar (June 12), according to the website of the Iranian football federation.

Also Dejagah himself stated he feels almost completely fit, but that it will be up to Iran boss Carlos Queiroz if he will play in the two games.

The Vfl Wolfsburg attacker, however, didn't train with the team yet, instead having solo session with a physiotherapist (pictured) and undergoing examinations in the training camp clinic.

Meanwhile it was reported that Ängelholms FF midfielder Omid Nazari, who couldn't play in the recent friendly match defeat to Albania due to unfinished paperwork, will leave the national team after the training camp and before the Uzbekistan clash.
