عادل فردوسی‌پورAdel Ferdosipour

Adel Ferdosipour (also romanised as Adel Ferdowsipour and Adel Ferdowsi-Pour) is an Iranian translator, university lecturer, producer, television presenter and football commentator. The Sharif University of Technology Association records that he earned BS and MS degrees in industrial engineering from Sharif in 1997 and 1999, later completed a PhD in media management at the University of Tehran, and taught in Sharif’s Industrial Engineering Department. The same source identifies him as anchorman of the popular programme Navad and named him its 2020 Alumni Achievement Award recipient. In 2009, Newsweek placed him nineteenth in a list of twenty powerful figures in Iran and pointed to a multimillion-text audience response as evidence of his media reach. His documented book work includes the 2010 Persian translation of Simon Kuper’s Football Against the Enemy. Cheshmeh editions of The Art of Thinking Clearly in 2015 and The Art of the Good Life in 2018 credit Ferdosipour together with Behzad Tavakoli Neishabouri and Ali Shahrooz Sotoodeh; the same trio translated Stop Reading the News in 2020. Taaghche also records the Maradona biography by Guillem Balagué as translated by Ferdosipour and Sotoodeh. Public reference records conflict over his exact birth day and place, so this profile reports only 1974 with a source-conflict warning and does not emit a structured birth date. Reliable selected sources do not verify the names of his parents or siblings, or a spouse or children; this absence must not be turned into a claim that he has no family.
