Iran have planned four warm-up games in Turkey as they plan to compete in the World Cup in the United States despite the war between the nations.

According to the country's football association, the first training camp with a provisional squad of 30 players will take place in the capital Tehran.

On May 6, the team will go to Turkey, where Iran are set to play four warm-up matches including against Spain.

The team will then travel to the United States, but the location of their training base there has not yet been decided.

Association president Mehdi Taj said he was confident Iran would take part in the World Cup despite the conflict.

"As things stand, we are taking part," Taj said, according to the ISNA news agency.
