Mehdi Taremi finally found a way out of Iran's capital yesterday amid Israel's airstrikes.
Indeed, he fleed Tehran yesterday to join his family in a safer area after being stuck in the city under siege for days.
Unfortunately, the worsening situation in the region means a return to the pitch looks increasingly unlikely.

Unable to leave Tehran on time, Taremi missed the flight to the United States.
Therefore, he wasn't part of the Inter squad for the Club World Cup.
Despite leaving the war zone, the 32-year-old will likely watch the rest of the tournament from afar.
Meanwhile, Taremi isn't the only notable absence in Cristian Chivu's squad.
Indeed, Marcus Thuram is out after picking up a minor injury against CF Monterrey on day one.

🔬 The Debrief as trio of Europe's elite seal Club World Cup progress
More sides punched their knockout ticket at the Club World Cup on Tuesday, while some prestigious clubs are heading home early. Here's what went down. You can sign up to DAZN to watch every FIFA Club World Cup game for free. What happened? 📝 An early Andreas Schjelderup strike saw Benfica beat Bayern Munich 1-0 and pip the German champions to top spot in the group. Advertisement Amateur part-timers Auckland City then came from behind to secure one of the best results in their history in rebounding from 10-0 and 6-0 thrashings in their first two games by claiming a 1-1 draw against Boca Juniors, with both of those sides now exiting the tournament. Flamengo ensured themselves of first place in Group D by responding to LAFC's late go-ahead goal with an instant equaliser in a 1-1 draw, while Chelsea swatted Espérance de Tunis aside 3-0 to join the Brazilians in the last 16. Player of the Day 🔥 Nicolas Jackson's suspension opened the door for Liam Delap to come in and he grabbed his chance with both hands. Advertisement The summer signing's overall performance was impressive and encouraging, capped off by an excellent individual goal. It was a real centre forward showing. Is the Blues' No. 9 curse over? Stat of the Day 📊 Surprising as it may be to believe given their status as European heavyweights but Benfica's win over Bayern Munich was the first in their history. What this means 🤔 The results in both groups mean their respective last 16 showdowns are now set in stone. Benfica's reward for topping the group is a meeting with Chelsea, while Bayern Munich will take on Flamengo. Boca Juniors, Auckland City, Espérance de Tunis and LAFC are all eliminated. What they said 🗣️ "It's just a number, this [No. 9 curse] doesn't mean that much to me! You have to have confidence and belief as a player and I hope this goal is the first of many." Liam Delap, Chelsea Advertisement "I'm from a small town, a long way from here and a lot different to this environment. So it is somewhat of a dream. We don't have a lot of money so this means so much to us." Christian Gray, Auckland City "We can't use the heat as an excuse. Both teams had the same conditions. It was our fault we didn't bring the intensity in the first half. We just weren't quite there." Manuel Neuer, Bayern Munich What's next? 👀 Up first on Wednesday is the conclusion of Group F, with three teams fighting it out for the two qualification places. Borussia Dortmund look best placed to qualify as they face Ulsan, who are bottom and eliminated without a point, which would leave a direct shootout between Fluminense and Mamelodi Sundowns to join them. Advertisement Afterwards, the top two sides in Group E meet, with River Plate and Inter both on four points ahead of the final fixture, while Monterrey are lurking behind them on two points and set to take on Urawa Red Diamonds, who are already out. 📸 FRANCK FIFE - AFP or licensors
