A commanding central defender known as Hossein Kanaani, he made his Persepolis debut as a teenager in 2012 and, after loan spells and a stint at Esteghlal, returned to become a cornerstone of the Persepolis defence and a regular scorer from set pieces. He spent two years in Qatar with Al-Ahli before coming back to Tehran. A long-serving international, he is a key figure in Iran's backline.
- Has scored 6 goals for Iran, a strong tally for a centre-back
- Won league titles in both spells with Persepolis
