Iranian national striker Mehdi Taremi has completed his transfer to Inter Milan.

Inter Milan said on its official website on the 13th (Korea Standard Time) 'Taremi signed a contract with us until June 30, 2027. He is the first Iranian player in Inter Milan's history. Taremi's Inter Milan adventure has just begun,' he said, announcing the recruitment.

Taremi is a striker representing Asia. Taremi, who started his professional career in Iran, began to stand out in 2014 when he moved to Persepolis, a prestigious club in the country. Taremi, who dominated Iran by winning the top scorer in his own league, succeeded in advancing to Europe by moving to Hiu Abbe, a member of the Portuguese league, after going through the Qatar League.

As soon as he entered Europe, he showed excellent scoring ability in the Portuguese league and was called by FC Porto, a prestigious Portuguese club. After moving to Porto, Taremi became the league's best scoring machine. Almost every season, he recorded more than 30 offensive points in the league alone, frequently connecting with big clubs.

Taremi, who was active in the Portuguese league, wanted a new challenge. He wanted to enter the big league and verify his skills. It has been linked to a number of clubs. There were a lot of rumors of a transfer with Italian big clubs, but they couldn't wear new uniforms in the transfer market last summer.

Taremi has agreed a transfer with Inter Milan in the 2023-2024 season as a free agent. Taremi ended his career in Portugal with an insane performance of 91 goals and 56 assists in 182 games for the club, Porto.

Although Taremi was born in 1992 and is in her mid-30s, Inter Milan were confident of success in signing Taremi by handing over a three-year long-term contract. In Inter Milan, they have to compete with Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram. It remains to be seen whether he will be able to immediately leap to the starting lineup.

Taremi is an all-around striker. No player in Asia plays as well as Taremi except Son Heung-min. He is a striker who is not lacking in goal determination, shooting ability, and connection. As a member of the Iranian national team, he also showed off his outstanding ability to score 49 goals in 86 games.
