The last few years have seen young Iranian players caught in a strange dichotomy, where sought-after big domestic moves often halt progression and lead to limited playing time. The Persian Gulf Pro League, Iran’s top football flight, ranks second-worst in the world when it comes to minutes given to U21 players. This season only 15 teenagers have featured - almost half the amount of two seasons ago. | Written by Sahand Salari - @salari_sahand & @IranFootballScout
