Club career
Nassaji
Alishah started his career at Nassaji while he was 17.[1] He debuted for the club on January 7, 2010 against Shirin Faraz when he was chosen as a starter by the coach Nader Dastneshan.[2]
Naft Tehran
In 2010–11 season, Alishah joined newly promoted IPL team Naft Tehran.[3] During his time at Naft, he failed to make any appearances for the first team. He was also a part of Naft Tehran U-21 and won the 2010–11 Tehran U–21 League.[4][5]
Rah Ahan
After a season at Naft, Alishah was signed up by Ali Daei for Rah Ahan.[6] Ali Daei moved him up the field and into a more attacking position using Alishah as a right winger/second striker instead of right back where he had been used by his previous managers. Alishah with his blistering pace quickly managed to find his way into the starting line-up scoring 5 goals in his first nine games. He had a less successful second half of a season mainly due to a Cruciate ligament injury in a match against Damash Gilan in March 2012.[7] He had been far from the team till December 2012.[8]
Persepolis
He signed a two-year contract with Persepolis on 11 June 2013.[9] He made his debut on 16 August 2013 in a match against Malavan, in which he scored the winning goal. He scored his second goal on 6 April 2014 in a 2–2 draw against his former team, Rah Ahan. On 23 November 2014, Alishah scored the winning goal in the Tehran derby against rival Esteghlal in the 78th minute. He was sent off after receiving his second yellow card seconds after his goal.
International career
U–17
Alishah represented Iran U-17 in the 3 of the 4 games the team played at the 2009 FIFA U-17 World Cup.[10]
U–20
He also made the squad for the unsuccessful 2010 AFC U-19 Championship, surprisingly his involvement was highly limited under the guidance of his former U17 manager, Ali Doustimehr.[11]
U-22
He was invited to Iran U-22 by the coach Alireza Mansourian.[12] He made his debut against Qatar U-22 and scored his first goal at the match.[13]
