The striker represented Iran at the 2026 World Cup in North America, where they exited in the group stage after drawing all three of their matches.
His arrival strengthens an Al Wasl side that have made a flying start to the season, winning their opening two league matches to sit atop the UAE Pro League standings.
Al Wasl are also preparing for the AFC Champions League Elite after finishing third in the domestic league last season. They are due to face Saudi Arabia’s Al Qadsiah on September 14.
