Playing career

A meniscus injury ended his playing career at age of 27.[2]

Managerial career

Talebi attended Chelsea coaching school in England for several months between 1971 and 1973.[2] He coached the Iran national under-20 football team from 1976 to 1978.[4]

Talebi had coached soccer at De Anza Community College. He was the head coach of the Iranian national team during the 1998 FIFA World Cup.[5] Prior to the tournament, he was appointed to replace Tomislav Ivic. He had held the position of technical director before he was named as head coach. He stepped down as head coach after the 1998 FIFA World Cup on 20 August 1998,[6] but returned to lead the team again during 2000 Asian Cup in Lebanon. He resigned after Iran's elimination in the tournament.[7]

Talebi has also managed Geylang United of S.League in 1996, Indonesian Olympic Team from 1996 to 1997, Syria national football team from 2001 to 2002, and Al Taliya from 2005 to 2006.
