description: "Ahad Sheykhlari is an Iranian professional football player who was forced to leave the green field unexpectedly due to the pressure from his teammates and club's official, who believed his success foreshadowed his teammates' popularity. He is currently a professional football manager. He started his football career as an amateur in Tabriz dirt fields and neighborhood clubs. The very first football club he joined was Charandab's neighborhood club Peykan. He played his professional career for Machine Sazi, Montakhabeh Tabriz, Idem F.C., Tractor, and Esteghlal Rasht F.C. During his playing career for Tractor as a striker, he scored 115 goals. Towards the end of his playing career, Vasile Godja, the manager of Tractor, used him as a defender and he performed as a successful sweeper. He also represented Iran at the national level, playing for Iran's under-20 football team and the Iran national football team and has 20 national caps with five goals. Tractor's fans named him Tabriz's Maradona due to his aggressive technique, speed, scoring, and he kicks specific skills."
