Nobody I can think of, but they have this one fun fact that they were the first European club of Ali Daei, who was the all-time leading international goal scorer until dethroned by Cristiano Ronaldo some years back.

Daei never hacked it big in the Bundesliga, scoring 19 goals across five years, but it turns out you can farm goals pretty easily against Laos and Nepal...
