Football became Mehran’s first love due mainly to the exposure to the sport courtesy of his father and uncle. He played football professionally, though his journey has been filled with multiple injuries that hampered his participation in the sport. His journey was sidelined due to a serious knee injury. Mehran stayed determined and knew he wanted to stay close to the world of football in some capacity or other. Later, he would become a football coach and train in countries like Holland and Spain.

Mehran founded the Alliance Football Club Dubai in 2015; it is an organization that aims to develop young and promising athletes. He trains both male and female children aged three and over and gives them the skills to become pros in the Middle Eastern football scene. Mehran was able to turn the Alliance Football Club into the most innovative football club in Dubai by implementing unique training methods for children.

The grassroots approach by Alliance Football Club brings hope for a brighter future for the sport both in Dubai and in the Middle East. In addition, the organization is dedicated to using sustainable practices, which made them the first eco-friendly sports club for the youth in the Middle East. Mehran also utilizes Alliance Football Club to empower women in the game by having girls trained by female coaches.

The Alliance Football Club understands that children and teens are not just athletes but also human beings with unique characteristics, needs, and interests. The club believes that these children will be students first before being athletes, so the major stress is on education as well. The football club equips every child with the knowledge to empower them through the combination of education and sports.

All their players’ football skills and life skills are given equal importance by the Alliance Football Club as they provide remarkable youth experiences and training. The organization maintains that they’re more than just a football club or an academy for sports, but they are a family and part of a bigger community. At Alliance Football Club, children don’t just learn about football; they also learn, grow, and are made ready to face the world.

As their way of giving back to the community, the Alliance Football Club launched the annual Alliance Gives campaign in 2018. Through this initiative, members of the club donate their football items like gloves, shoes, shirts, and shorts to children in need. Through this effort, the football club sends the message that football is both a sport and an avenue to be compassionate to others.

Alliance Football Club now has over 300 students and a staff of twenty. Mehran continues to work to keep the club growing. He shares his organization’s amazing work through its social media pages like Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. For Mehran, Alliance Football Club is about building more confident and empathetic leaders in society.
