Although Persepolis had already expressed interest in signing the 32-year-old midfielder, its request was rejected by the Emirati club.
However, recent media reports suggest that there is now a possibility Nourollahi could join the Iranian team.
Nourollahi was a member of Persepolis from 2014 to 2021 before leaving to join Shabab Al Ahli. He was transferred to the UAE after two years.
Persepolis has recently appointed Vahid Hashemian as its new head coach, replacing Turkish manager Ismail Kartal.
