TEHRAN – Maryam Monazzami was named the vice president of the Iranian women’s Football Federation.
She replaced Shohreh Mousavi, who was removed from her post due to her frequent absences in the meetings of the board of directors in January.
Mousavi is also facing financial issues, which led to her arrest in April 2022.
Monazzami, a former athlete, had previously worked as vice president in the wrestling and weightlifting federations.
