Club career

Naft Tehran

Beiranvand has played with Naft Tehran since 2011. He made his debut in Hazfi cup against Damash on 25 October 2011.[3] There were links between him and Tehran giant, Persepolis, but the chairman of Naft Tehran, Mansour Ghanbarzadeh, did not allow him to leave the club.[4] In his first year as the first choice goalkeeper, Beiranvand led Naft to a 3rd place League finish and a spot in the AFC Champions League for the first time in the club's history. On 23 March 2014, Beiranvand extended his contract with Naft until 2019. On 24 November 2014, Beiranvand provided an assist in their match against Tractor Sazi by throwing the ball into the opponent's half.[5]

He was linked with a move to Iranian giants Persepolis in January 2016 but the move fell through at the last moment. Beiranvand left Naft at the end of the 2015–16 season after his contract expired.

Persepolis

2016–17

On 16 May 2016, after the completion of the 2015–16 Persian Gulf Pro League season, Beiranvand signed a two–year contract with league runners up Persepolis.[6]

International career

Youth team

He was part of Iran U20 during the 2010 AFC U-19 Championship.[7] He was in net for a 3–0 loss against Australia.[8]

Olympic team

He was invited to Iran U22 by Alireza Mansourian to compete in the 2013 AFC U-22 Asian Cup qualification.[9]

Senior team

In April 2014, he was called up to the Iran national football team training camp in South Africa by coach Carlos Queiroz after many Sepahan players could not make it because of AFC Champions League matches, including goalkeeper Rahman Ahmadi. He was also selected in Iran's 30-man provisional squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. However, Beiranvand was not included in Iran's squad for the World Cup, without playing any match in pre-World Cup friendly matches. He was called into Iran's 2015 AFC Asian Cup squad on 30 December 2014 by Carlos Queiroz.[10] He made his debut in a friendly match against Iraq on 4 January 2015, just before the 2015 AFC Asian Cup.

During the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification, first-choice goalkeeper Alireza Haghighi was denied a visa for entry to Guam ahead of their fixture, alongside left back Ehsan Hajsafi. Beiranvand was thus given his first competitive start for the senior team. However, he was given a straight-red in the 72nd minute for a foul on Guam midfielder Dylan Naputi, less than a minute after Iran had used up all of their substitutions, forcing defender Ezzatollah Pourghaz to take on goalkeeper duties.[11]

Style of play

Beiranvand's main trait is his outrageous long throwing ball. Many of this throws have caused goals and assists. In the 2015 AFC Champions League Round of 16, on 20 May 2015, against Al Ahli Beiranvand had a magnificent throwing the ball with an range 60m. On 24 November 2014, Beiranvand provided an assist against Tractor Sazi by throwing the ball into the opponent's half.

At 1.95 m (6 ft 4 in), Beiranvand is good in aerial duels, and Beiranvand has been praised for his athleticism, his "outstanding shot-stopping", his acrobatic dives, and his quick reflexes.
