FC Groningen are reportedly ready to consider a move for Persepolis forward Mehdi Taremi in this summer's transfer window.

Taremi has one year left remaining on his current contract at Persepolis.

He scored 24 goals for the Reds in 37 matches in Iran Professional League and the AFC Champions League last season.

Taremi is reportedly being considered as a replacement for Alexander Sørloth who left Groningen for FC Midtjylland.

Taremi has scored three vital goals in Iran’s last three matches in the 2018 World Cup qualification.

The 24-year-old striker has been already linked with a move to Greek teams Panionios and AEK Athens and Dinamo Zagreb.

Persepolis have signed a contract with Nigerian striker Gowdin Mensha.
