Iranian defensive midfielder Javad Nekounam was named the 2005 IPL Player of the Year by PFDC & IG.

The former Pas player had a big influence in the progress Pas made in the Asian Champions League. Because of that there were several European teams interested to sign him. The most interested team was the German Bundesliga team FC Kaiserslautern. Although the transfer was almost ready the two clubs didn't reach an agreement. A few days ago Iranian star Javad Nekounam was signed by the UAE champions Al Wahda. He will be playing there untill the World Cup.

The other two nominees to win this award were Arash Borhani and Mehdi Rajabzadeh.

The other nominee to win the contest was Mehdi Rajabzadeh.
