Abbas Aghaei (Persian: عباس آقایی, born September 2, 1977, in Sarab, East Azerbaijan) is a retired Iranian football player. He played as a midfielder for Tractor, Pas Tehran, Sepahan and Persepolis in the Iran Pro League as well as for the Iran national team.
Club career
[edit]He spent most of his career at Pas Tehran. In 2004, he joined another IPL club, Sepahan, but returned to Pas after two seasons. In July 2007 Aghaei signed a one-year contract with Iranian giants Persepolis F.C., despite numerous offers from the UAE League from clubs such Al-Ahli.
He scored his first goal for Persepolis in August 2007 – a 37-yard free kick during a 2–0 win against Pegah F.C. He also scored the equalizer in the 7th week match against Pas Hamedan with a 25-yard volley.
He scored yet another 40-yard free kick against Sepahan, but it was not enough to prevent Persepolis suffering their first defeat of the season, losing 2–1. In all, he scored 7 goals for Persepolis. He signed a contract with Damash in June 2011.[3]
