Alireza Mohammad (Persian: علیرضا محمد‎‎, born 14 July 1981 in mazandaran, Iran) is an Iranian football defender who currently plays for Paykan in the Iran Pro League.

On 11 June 2008, Mohammad signed a two-year deal with Iran Pro League champions Persepolis.

Club career

After signing with Persepolis, he became a starter right away under head coach Afshin Ghotbi and during the same season when Afshin Peyrovani and Nelo Vingada took over as the managers of the club, he was still a starter both in the league and the AFC Champions League. He is mostly remembered by his great dribbling ability, his runs down the right side and also his speed which all helped Persepolis tremendously during the 2008/09 season. Although having outstanding speed, Mohammad is not as efficient when crossing, making him waste a lot of opportunities while going forward.
