Iran Football Chief Denied Entry to Canada Ahead of FIFA Event
A fresh controversy has erupted ahead of a major FIFA event after members of Iran’s football delegation returned home from Canada following entry issues at Toronto airport. Iranian Football Federation chief Mehdi Taj was reportedly denied entry due to alleged links with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which Canada considers inadmissible. The incident has added a geopolitical twist to football diplomacy just weeks before the 2026 World Cup.
