Iranian footballer Seyed Majid Hosseini is apparently on transfer radar to professional Turkish football club Trabzonspor, thanks to his fine performances at the preliminary round of the 2018 Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) World Cup in Russia.

According to a report published by the Turkish-language Gunebakis newspaper, the Trabzon-based club is considering to sign the 22-year-old, who plays as a central defender for the Persian Gulf Pro League club Esteghlal as well as the Iranian national football team, for a fee of 300,000 euros.

This is while Esteghlal has stated that Trabzonspor has to stump up a minimum of €500,000 for Hosseini’s transfer fee in case it is interested in the acquisition of the player.
