Ansarifard’s January move to Olympiacos sparked what has arguably become the best year of his career. After helping the Greek giants to a league title, he was unexpectedly left off the UEFA Champions League squad by new manager Besnik Hasi, who put the striker up for sale.
The Albanian manager was fired in late September for poor results and Ansarifard has fortunately been able to work himself back into the starting lineup, becoming the league’s top scorer thus far with seven goals from 11 matches.
