Oman today_ After their match against Havadar at the end of the first half of the season, Persepolis must prepare for a challenging second half. The team intends to hire a foreign coach and sign a few new players, making them one of the busiest teams in the mid-season transfer window. However, the bad news for Persepolis fans is that none of the new signings will be able to play in the AFC Champions League for the team, as these players will not be included in Persepolis’s Asian roster. The Asian team rosters are locked at the start of the season, and teams are not allowed to add new players until the end of the group stage. According to AFC rules, teams could add up to three free agents to their roster until November 1, but Persepolis did not utilize this opportunity, and now there is no possibility of changes to the roster.
Persepolis faces two important and tough matches in the AFC Champions League. The first match is on Tuesday, February 6 at 21:30 against Al Hilal, and the second match is on Tuesday, February 20 at 19:30 against Al Nassr. In these critical games, Persepolis will not be able to use their new players, but if the team advances to the next stage, the new signings will be able to join the roster and be part of the lineup.
