Afshin Peyrovani interested in releasing his memoir
12 February 2013
Afshin Peyrovani, a retired Iranian footballer and a football coach, is interested in releasing his memoir.
IBNA: Talking about the publication of sportsperson’s memories, Afshin Peyrovani said: “In Iran, unfortunately, the publication of footballer’s memoir isn’t common; while noted foreign footballers like Zinedine Zidane, David Beckham and Wayne Rooney have released books about their professional life which have been welcomed warmly indeed.â€
Iranian publishers encounter several problems for the publication of such books; their publication is costly and on the other hand we still fail to know that will the readers welcome such books, he added.
Former Iranian national soccer captain noted: “Sports should be looked through a scientific window. I have read some of football coaching books which were released during the resent years which I believe should be improved scientifically.â€
Talking about supervising the publication of such books, he added: “It seems that books of football coaching aren’t supervised in Iran which can indeed have negative effects.â€
Every second of my professional life is a memory and since I heard that some noted footballers intend to write their memories, I decided to write mine after theirs. In other words I don’t like to be the first writer of football memories in Iran.
