Turkish coach İsmail Kartal recently parted ways with the Iranian giant due to family reasons.
Osmar, who guided Persepolis to the championship in the 2023-24 Iran Pro League (IPL), left the team to assume the head coach position at Thai League 1 club Buriram United.
Other potential candidates to replace Kartal include former China national team coach Branko Ivanković and Foolad’s Yahya Golmohammadi.
