TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Iranian international goalkeeper Alireza Haghighi joined Penafiel on loan from Russian Rubin Kazan on Wednesday.
 
Haghighi, 27, played in Portuguese second division Sporting Covilhã in the last season.



Newly promoted Penafiel is now bottom of the table after the team suffered two defeats from its two matches.

Haghighi was part of Iran football team in the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, where the Iranian team lost to Argentina and Bosnia and Herzegovina and played out a goalless draw with Nigeria.

The custodian started his career at Iranian popular football club Persepolis in 2006.
