Nouri Khodayari (Arabic: نوري خضيري, Persian: نوری خداياری) was a Iraq–Iranian football player. He was born in Baghdad and played for Al-Omma and Aliyat Al-Shurta (only one match scoring four goals). He was known in Iraq as Nouri Qaraman. He was a Fayli Kurd and because he did not possess a certificate of nationality he was unable to sign for Aliyat Al-Shurta (one of the best teams in Iraq in the 1960s and 1970s), which was why he left Iraq as he was unable to sign for any club. Khodayari died at dawn on March 6, 2013 in Ahvaz after a heart attack. He is survived by five children, two sons and three daughters. [3]
