The Eternal Heart of Persepolis

In the heart of Iranian football, few names resonate louder than the veterans of Persepolis FC. These players are more than just athletes — they are living symbols of loyalty, resilience, and passion, embodying the soul of one of Asia’s most storied football clubs.

A Persepolis veteran is not simply defined by the number of matches played or seasons spent wearing the red shirt. It’s about the battles fought on and off the pitch — from fierce derbies against Esteghlal to continental clashes in the AFC Champions League. They carry with them decades of tradition, the expectations of millions of fans, and the pride of representing a club built on unity, struggle, and triumph.
