Controversies
In an interview with the newspaper Shargh on October 7, 2016, Mohammad Dadkan claimed that during his tenure, just days before the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, Mohammad Aliabadi ordered him to remove Ali Daei, Sohrab Bakhtiarizadeh, and Yahya Golmohammadi from the national team. Dadkan stated: "The Football Federation must be independent. Even the smallest federation should operate independently in terms of execution. The role of the Ministry of Sports should be supervisory and guiding, not interfering. Positive feedback, yes; interference, no. During my time, the then sports official, Mr. Aliabadi, who knew nothing about sports and football, came to me and said, 'Remove Ali Daei, Yahya Golmohammadi, and Sohrab Bakhtiarizadeh.' I told him, 'Alright,' but I did not do it."
