His career took a dramatic turnover in June 2002, when he was arrested by Iranian police for attending a birthday party. At the time, Khaziravi was becoming a significant football icon in Iran after significantly helping the national team in their failed qualification campaign for World Cup 2002.
Like many of Iran's great football talents, Khaziravi is a native of Khuzestan, and like most players from this region of the country, he was known for his speed and dribbling skills. His primary position was wingback, but he could also play as a winger like his fellow Khuzestani Hossein Kaebi. He is right-footed.
