#VNL 🇮🇷: IRAN’S NEXT STEP 👀

The #VNL2026 team preview continues, and next up is Iran 🇮🇷.

Iran finished #VNL2025 with a 6–6 record, ranking 8th after the Preliminary Round and coming close to a spot in the playoffs 😱.

This season, captaincy remains with Morteza Sharifi 🔥, who stepped into the role at last year’s World Championship and will now lead Iran for the first time in the VNL 🤩.

After coming so close last season, can Iran push further this time 👀?
