The stadium was built in 1978, there have been many disputes as to the name of Takhti Stadium. The stadium had been the home of both
Esteghlal Ahvaz and
Foolad in past years.
Foolad was relegated in 2007, they were as such not allowed to play all the matches in this stadium. In 2013 Foolad permanently moved to a much bigger
Ghadir Stadium. The stadium was renovated in summer 2012 and then,
Esteghlal Khuzestan purchased its rights with a contract until 2014. ==Location==
