Club career

Nasseri played for the Manchester United Academy until the age of 16.[1] He subsequently had stints with the academies of Crewe Alexandra, Blackburn Rovers and Bury.

Nasseri joined Birmingham City on a one year deal in July 2014 and was assigned to the development squad.[2] After making eight appearances for the side, his contract was terminated by mutual consent.[3]

On 28 October 2016, Nasseri signed for Macclesfield Town.[4] In the winter of 2017, he trialled with Swedish clubs AIK and GIF Sundsvall. In March 2017, he joined Syrianska in the same country.[5]

On 26 January 2018, Nasseri signed with League One club Gillingham for the remainder of the season.[6] He made his professional debut on 10 March, coming on as a late substitute in a 3–1 away win against Portsmouth.[7] He scored a goal in his first start for the club on 29 March 2018 against MK Dons.[8] He signed a one-year deal with the club in May 2018, but he made just four further league appearances for the club before his contract was cancelled by mutual consent in January 2019.[9][10]

After an unsuccessful trial with Dutch side RKC Waalwijk,[11] Nasseri signed for NIFL Premiership side Glentoran in October 2019.[12] He scored on his debut on 9 October 2019 as the club fell to a 2–1 defeat to Coleraine in the Northern Ireland Football League Cup, before making his full league debut three days later in a 3-1 win over Carrick Rangers.[13][14] On 31 July 2020, Nasseri and Glentoran won the 2019–20 Irish Cup.[15]

The day after winning the Irish Cup it was announced that Nasseri had signed for Linfield.[16]
