He signed a 2.5 year contract until the end of the 2014–15 season.[15][16] He made his debut for Persepolis in a 6–0 win against Malavan in the 2012–13 Hazfi Cup Round of 32.[17] He scored his first goal for Persepolis from a penalty kick in a match against Saipa on 28 February 2013.[18] On 27 December 2014 he was officially released from Persepolis.[19] He finished his career in Persepolis with 61 appearances and 3 goals.
