Foolad (فولاد in
Persian), literally meaning "steel", is an Iranian football club, based in
Ahvaz, Khuzestan. It was named Foolad partially because it is funded by
the industry in Khuzestan. The club contributed the highest number (six)
of players to the national team during the Asian Cup 2004 in China, in
particular during the quarter-final clash with South Korea, which ended
4-3 (in normal time) in favor of the then underdogs, Iran. In the 2004-05
season, Foolad became the champion of the fourth Iran Professional League
(IPL), gaining a total of 64 points over 30 league matches. The majority
of current squad players are under 25 years of age, making the club one of
the youngest average-wise, among the IPL teams throughout the country. |

متحول ترین تیم این فصل لیگ برتر همراه با محمد مایلی كهن و محمد خاكپور كه از
آمریكا به ایران برگشته حداقل روی كاغذ برای موفقیت كار غیرممكنی در پیش دارد. ۱۰
بازیكن كلیدی فولاد از این تیم جدا شده اند و در عوض تعدادی بازیكن جوان و گمنام به
تیم خوزستانی آمده اند. محمد مایلی كهن در طول آماده سازی فولاد كار سختی داشت تا
بازیكنان تازه وارد را با آنهایی كه مانده اند هماهنگ كند |

Club history
Foolad was a team that no one knew
anything about until the dissolution of Jonoub Ahvaz football team in
1996. Foolad had won the Ahvaz City Championship in 1991, and entered the
2nd division of the Khuzestan football league two years later. In 1995,
which was Foolad's second year in the Khuzestan second division, they
became provincial champions. That same year Jonoob Ahvaz FC, was
contracted and Foolad took their place in Iran's 2nd division football
league. In 1996, with Homayoun Shahrokhi as manager, the team was promoted
to the first division. It was really an amazing run, considering that the
team began in the 4th division of the Ahvaz City League in 1986. Ever
since their promotion, the club has introduced very talented young
footballers to Iranian football. The team was eventually bought by the
Ahvaz Steel Mill, this helped the team's financial situation improve. The
team was finally able to use its massive potential and win the IPL in the
2004/05 season but unfortunately due to some ensuing internal problems and
coaching difficulties could not perform well in the 2006 Asian Champions
League. Their star player and MVP of their championship season was loaned
and eventually transferred to Al-Shabbab in the UAE. The club also had to
change the location of its home field, due to renovations, instead playing
in neighbouring city, Abadan's Takhti Stadium. Foolad now looks to a new
start under the recently-appointed former national team head coach
Mohammad Mayeli Kohan in the forthcoming IPL season.
