Today’s huge dumpling is from Thievy Bifouma. The player signed in Iran to face Cristiano Ronaldo, but chose the wrong club. A completely crazy story.
At 32, Thievy Bifouma has already known clubs: Reims, Bastia, Las Palmas, Espanyol, etc. But his latest career choice is perhaps the most surprising.
Looking for a club during the last summer transfer window, the Congolese international received an offer from Esteghal, in Iran. “You’ll laugh, but it’s the truth. I had the opportunity to return to Türkiye, but my wife didn’t want to and my dream is to play against Cistiano Ronaldo one day before he finishes his career. Since it is in Asia, I had the opportunity to go to Iran. I looked in the calendar, and I saw that Esteghlal was playing against Al-Nassr“, explained the player on a television set.
Only, what he hadn’t noticed is that there are two “Esteghal” in Iran. Esteghal FC and Esteghlal Khuzestan. And it was in the second club mentioned that Bifouma signed, while it was Esteghal FC who faced Al-Nassr of CR7.
When he arrived in Iran, the player also thought of joining Gaël Kakuta. “I arrive in Tehran and Kakuta calls me to ask where I am. I tell him I’m at the hotel to do the tests. An hour later, he calls me back, he laughs and tells me that I am in little Esteghlal“, smiles Bifouma today.
In short, Thievy Bifouma did not face Al-Nassr, and plays in a club 800 kilometers from Tehran, but can console himself by looking at the ranking where Esteghal Khuzestan is 7th with 5 points ahead of “FC” who however, has one match less.
