He remained in F.C. Aboomoslem for the 2002/03 season but the year after and after being linked with a move to Persepolis F.C. he signed with Esteghlal F.C.. He was not able to impress in his first season in Tehran, but in the 2004/05 season he was able to show his talents and was able to finish as the IPL's top goalscorer again with 20 goals. The next season he was just as impressive, scoring 21 goals, finishing as the league's top scorer and helping his club Esteghlal win the championship and also broke the record of scoring in a season in Iran and he is the all time top scorer of Persian Gulf Cup. After World Cup 2006 he signed with the UAE club, Al-Emarat.
