TEHRANTIMES - Persepolis head coach Branko Ivankovic believes his team has the chance of winning the title in all three competitions for the next season.


The Croatian coach, who nearly missed the Iran Professional League title with Persepolis last season, thinks his team is the favorite in IPL, Hazfi Cup and also AFC Champions League.

“We will play in the league, Hazfi Cup and AFC Champions League and we are the favorites in all three. We had good performance last season and we want to build on that to bring more glories to the club. Our priority is to make our fans happy as they supported us from until the last seconds,” Branko told reporters.

“I’ve given a list of the players to the club officials and I hope we could strengthen the team in the transfer window. Vahid Amiri and Mehrdad Mohammadi are both on my list and I hope the club could sign them in the coming weeks,” Branko added.

Persepolis has already signed Sasan Ansari, Ehsan Alvanzadeh, Alireza Beyranvand and Jalal Hosseini in the transfer market.
