Iran to hold pre-World Cup training camp in Turkiye: media

The Iran team will head to Turkiye for a training camp before taking part in the World Cup in the United States, local media reported Friday.

“The next phase of the national team’s preparation is set to be hosted in Antalya, Turkiye,” Iranian Football360 website reported, adding that the squad would then travel to their World Cup base in Tucson, Arizona.

Antalya also hosted the Iran team for training and matches in March.

“It is confirmed for 29 May,” Sam Mehdizadeh, an Iranian-Canadian who organises friendlies involving the Iranian national team, said. –Agencies
