Payam Niazmand, the 31-year-old experienced goalkeeper of Persepolis club, is on the verge of extending his contract with the team. In recent weeks, the managers of Persepolis have begun reviewing the status of players whose contracts expire at the end of the season, and negotiations with the targeted individuals for contract extensions are gradually underway.
Initial negotiations and Niazmand's importance
Payam Niazmand, as the first player to sit at the negotiation table with the managers of Persepolis club, is receiving significant attention from the coaching staff. Given his good performance in the last two seasons and his key role in the team, the club is keen to finalize his contract before the end of the season to avoid any ambiguity regarding the future of this player.

Niazmand has played 28 matches for Persepolis in the last two seasons, particularly showing very good performance at the beginning of the seasons. Considering that Persepolis is currently looking to stabilize its position in the Premier League, retaining Niazmand as the main goalkeeper is of great importance.
Contract details and challenges
However, the financial details and some other points of the contract are still pending, and the final agreement is contingent upon the conclusion of both parties. Persepolis club has offered a three-year contract to Niazmand. Meanwhile, if this contract is finalized, the likelihood of Alireza Beiranvand returning to Persepolis will significantly decrease, and Niazmand will continue his work with this team.
As the season progresses, the contract status of several other players also needs to be clarified, and the managers of Persepolis are working to resolve the contract extension files of key team members before entering the final days of the season. Some players, such as Hossein Kananian, are also on the list for contract negotiations, and discussions will begin for them at the appropriate time.
Overall, Persepolis club is striving to create stability and strengthen the team by extending the contracts of its important players, and Payam Niazmand, as one of the main pillars of the team in this process, will play a key role.
