伊朗世界杯足球队周六从土耳其启程，前往位于墨西哥的训练基地。本月晚些时候，伊朗队将在美国进行三场小组赛，而据报道，其部分随行人员仍未拿到美国签证。
据伊朗国家电视台消息，伊朗足球联合会秘书长赫达亚特·蒙贝尼和副主席迈赫迪·穆罕默德·纳比在内的14名后勤人员及官员，在洛杉矶和西雅图的比赛前未能获得美国签证。
目前尚不清楚伊朗足协主席迈赫迪·塔杰是否已拿到签证。

由于伊朗与美国的紧张关系，伊朗队的世界杯参赛之路变得复杂。此前签证办理问题曾导致伊朗将训练基地从亚利桑那州图森迁至与加利福尼亚州接壤的墨西哥蒂华纳。
伊朗足协指责美国对该队“关键的管理和行政人员”拒签是“报复行为”。
该协会在其官网发表的声明中称，这一决定“实际上剥夺了伊朗国家队获得公平竞争环境和不受歧视赛事的机会”。声明还补充道，伊朗足协将通过国际足球管理机构国际足联来处理此事。
与此同时，伊朗驻安卡拉大使馆对美国大使汤姆·巴拉克此前的一条社交媒体帖文作出回应。巴拉克在帖文中对使馆工作人员成功为伊朗队办理签证表示祝贺。
伊朗大使馆的帖文写道：“你们无法通过自我表扬来掩盖违反国际足联规定、违背美国作为东道主义务的行为。这是对体育最恶劣的政治偏见干预。”
此前有一名美国官员向美联社透露，伊朗队所有球员均已获得签证批准，另一名官员则表示，球员、教练、训练师和部分后勤人员的签证均已发放。第三名官员称，部分与球队相关的申请人因“假借名义”申请签证而被拒签。
这些官员因未获授权公开讨论签证事宜，要求匿名。
这支队伍一直在安塔利亚的训练营为世界杯做准备。伊朗队表示，他们已从土耳其安卡拉的墨西哥大使馆获得了签证。
身着白色T恤外搭蓝色西装外套的球员们于周六下午离开安塔利亚的马尔丹宫豪华酒店。他们登上了这座地中海城市机场的私人飞机，预计将直飞墨西哥。
伊朗队的前两场小组赛将在加利福尼亚州英格尔伍德进行：6月15日对阵新西兰，6天后对阵比利时；随后将前往西雅图，于6月26日迎战埃及。如果伊朗队和美国队都能在各自小组中获得第二名，两队将在7月3日于德克萨斯州阿灵顿举行的1/16决赛中碰面。
今年3月，特朗普总统曾劝阻伊朗队参赛，称他认为参赛“不合适”，并对球员的“生命和安全”表示担忧。次日，伊朗国家队作出反驳，表示“没人能排除”伊朗队参赛的可能。
伊朗曾一度试图将其小组赛从美国迁至墨西哥。
国际足联主席詹尼·因凡蒂诺曾多次表示伊朗队将参赛。4月30日在加拿大温哥华举行的国际足联代表大会——这场年会有来自200多个国家的国际足联代表参与——因凡蒂诺在开场致辞时直言：“在此明确告诉那些想说三道四或乱写一通的人，伊朗当然会参加2026年国际足联世界杯。伊朗当然会在美国参赛。”
伊朗队已于周一确定最终26人大名单，其中包括17名本土球员——由于局势原因，他们的俱乐部自2月以来便未进行过比赛。明星前锋萨尔达尔·阿兹蒙于3月被排除出名单，据报道原因是其发布的一条社交媒体帖文在局势期间激怒了伊朗当局。
伊朗体育部长今年3月曾表示，伊朗队“不可能”参加世界杯，但伊朗共和国足协在5月表示，球队仍将按计划参赛。
伊朗足协曾坚持要求为所有球员和工作人员发放签证，包括曾在伊斯兰革命卫队服役的人员。
Iran soccer team departs for Mexico ahead of World Cup as some team officials denied U.S. visas, Iranian officials say

Iran’s World Cup soccer team set off from Turkey for their training base in Mexico on Saturday, with some members of their entourage reportedly still without U.S. visas, before three group matches in the U.S. later this month.
The Iranian Football Federation’s secretary-general, Hedayat Mombeini, and its vice president, Mehdi Mohammad Nabi, were among 14 backroom staff and officials without U.S. visas before games in Los Angeles and Seattle, according to Iranian state television.
It was unclear whether the federation’s president, Mehdi Taj, had been issued a visa.

The team’s participation in the World Cup has been complicated by the Iran war. Problems with processing visas had earlier led Iran to move its training base from Tucson, Arizona, to Tijuana, Mexico, which is on the border with California.
The federation accused the U.S. of “vindictive behavior” in refusing visas for “key managerial and administrative members” of the team.
The decision had “effectively denied the Iranian national team the opportunity for a level playing field and a competition free from discrimination,” according to a statement on the federation’s website. It added that the federation would pursue the matter through world soccer authority FIFA.
The Iranian Embassy in Ankara, meanwhile, responded to an earlier social media post from U.S. Ambassador Tom Barrack, in which he congratulated his embassy staff for processing the Iran team’s visas.
“You cannot whitewash conduct that violates FIFA regulations and breaches the United States’ host obligations merely by praising yourselves,” the Iranian post read. “This represents the worst possible form of politically biased interference in sport.”
One U.S. official earlier told The Associated Press that all players on the Iranian team were approved for visas, while a second official said visas had been issued for players, coaches, trainers and some support staff. A third official suggested that some applicants affiliated with the team had been rejected for requesting visas “under false pretenses.”
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the visas publicly.
The squad has been preparing for the World Cup at a training camp in Antalya. The team said that it has already received visas from the Mexican Embassy in Ankara.
The players, dressed in blue blazers over white T-shirts, left the luxury Mardan Palace hotel in Antalya on Saturday afternoon. They boarded a private jet at the Mediterranean city’s airport and were due to fly directly to Mexico.
Iran plays its first two games in Inglewood, California, against New Zealand on June 15, and Belgium six days later, then heads to Seattle to face Egypt on June 26. Iran and the U.S. could meet in the round of 32 on July 3 in Arlington, Texas, if both teams come second in their groups.
In March, President Trump had discouraged Iran from participating in the tournament, saying he didn’t think it was “appropriate” and raising concerns over players’ “life and safety.” A day later, Iran’s national team pushed back, saying “no one can exclude” it from playing.
At one point, Iran attempted to move its group games from the U.S. to Mexico.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino has repeatedly said that Iran will participate. On April 30 in Vancouver, Canada, while addressing the FIFA Congress — an annual meeting which involves FIFA representatives from more than 200 nations — Infantino opened his remarks by “confirming, straight away, for those who want to say something else or write something else, that of course Iran will be participating at the FIFA World Cup 2026. And of course Iran will play in the United States of America.”
Iran finalized its team on Monday, including 17 home-based players whose clubs haven’t played since February because of the war. Star forward Sardar Azmoun was dropped in March, reportedly because of a social media post that angered Iranian authorities during the war.
Iran’s sports minister said in March that it would “not be possible” for the team to participate in the World Cup, but the republic’s soccer federation said in May that it was moving ahead with a team.
The federation had insisted that all players and staff be granted visas, including those who had military service in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
