DUBAI, May 24 (AFP) - Veteran Iranian international striker Ali Daei has signed a two-year contract with Al-Shabab of the United Arab Emirates, the club announced on Friday.
Al-Shabab narrowly escaped relegation to the second division and have recently traded two of their foreign stars, Brazilian Nelson and Mirdjalal Kasimov of Uzbekistan.
Ali Daei is a former Asian player of the year who has played for German giants Bayern Munich and Hertha Berlin.
A club source said the deal was worth more than one million dollars.
Club director Said Abdel Ghaffar said he was about to sign another high-profile player "who is on the same level as Daei and who could also be Iranian."
