Back in collective sessions
Torabi (calf) returned to full training with the Iran squad on Monday, confirming his recovery from the calf issue that had been monitored ahead of the World Cup opener against New Zealand on June 15, according to WION.
Analysis: Torabi's return to collective sessions is a positive development for Iran heading into the tournament, with the medical staff having successfully managed his condition in the buildup to the competition. Coach Amir Ghalenoei now has another option available as Iran's final preparations enter their decisive final stage.
Recovering from calf injury
Torabi is recovering from a calf injury as Iran prepare for their World Cup opener against New Zealand on June 15, according to Persian Culer.
Analysis: Torabi's status will be evaluated over the coming days before a clearer picture emerges regarding his availability for the tournament opener. Iran's medical staff are keeping a close eye on his recovery with the competition right around the corner. Torabi is not expected to be a locked-in starter, so his potential absence would only be a minor blow for Iran.
