==Managerial career==

===Early years===
In mid-2006, Veisi became assistant coach of [[Foolad F.C.|Foolad]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.iransportspress.com/?c=45&a=3611|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061017143156/http://www.iransportspress.com/?c=45&a=3611|url-status=dead|archive-date=17 October 2006|title=IPL Preview: Foolad Khuzestan|date=17 October 2006}}</ref> After the departure of [[Mohammad Mayeli Kohan]], Veisi was appointed the manager of [[Foolad]] for the remainder of the [[2006–07 Persian Gulf Cup|season]]. He was soon replaced by [[Nenad Nikolić (footballer born 1959)|Nenad Nikolić]], in a season which saw Foolad relegated to the [[Azadegan League]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mehrnews.com/fa/NewsDetail.aspx?NewsID=478657|title=mehrnews}}</ref>

===Saba Qom and Paykan===
In 2009, he moved to [[Saba Battery]], becoming the team's assistant coach, under the helm of [[Rasoul Korbekandi]].<ref name="footilio">[http://www.footilio.com/search_News_%D8%B9%D8%A8%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%84%D9%87-%D9%88%DB%8C%D8%B3%DB%8C.aspx footilio.com] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110711015511/http://www.footilio.com/search_News_%D8%B9%D8%A8%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%84%D9%87-%D9%88%DB%8C%D8%B3%DB%8C.aspx |date=July 11, 2011 }}</ref> After the team moved to [[Qom]], he became the technical director<ref>[http://www.hamshahrionline.ir/news-119863.aspx Hamshahri] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101104212419/http://www.hamshahrionline.ir/news-119863.aspx |date=November 4, 2010 }}</ref> and was eventually promoted to manager when [[Mahmoud Yavari]] was released from his contract.<ref name="footilio" /> He kept Saba safe from the relegation zone in [[2010–11 Iran Pro League|2010–11 season]] but went on to produce very good results with the team in [[2011–12 Iran Pro League|next season]]. This ended with the team finishing the season in 4th place and they qualified for the [[2013 AFC Champions League|AFC Champions League]]. He left the team at the end of the season. He signed a two-year contract with newly promoted [[Paykan F.C.|Paykan]] on 14 May 2012 but was sacked on 27 January 2013 after a series of bad results.

===Esteghlal Khuzestan===
On 18 May 2013, he became head coach of another newly promoted team, [[Esteghlal Khuzestan F.C.|Esteghlal Khuzestan]]. He led Esteghlal Khuzestan to 12th position in his first season, three points better than the relegation zone. In the second season, Esteghlal Khuzestan bought [[Rouhollah Seifollahi]], [[Mohammad Reza Mahdavi (born 1981)|Mohammad Reza Mahdavi]], [[Soumbeïla Diakité]], [[Mehdi Seyed Salehi]], [[Meysam Baou]] and released [[Fábio Carvalho (footballer, born 1978)|Fábio Carvalho]], [[Sohrab Bakhtiarizadeh]], [[Adel Kolahkaj]] and [[Milad Meydavoudi]]. However, Veisi finished the season in the 14th position with Esteghlal Khuzestan, placing them in the relegation play-off which they faced [[Mes Kerman F.C.|Mes Kerman]]. Esteghlal Khuzestan won the play-off 3–0 on aggregate thanks to goals from [[Mehdi Momeni]] and [[Lamine Diawara (footballer)|Lamine Diawara]] (twice) and kept their [[Persian Gulf Pro League]] spot.

Veisi extended his contract until 2018 after the end of the season and started promoting young talents from the academy and [[Foolad Novin F.C.|Foolad Novin]] to the first squad. They started the season with three consecutive wins which was continued with four consecutive winning streaks in the 12th week, which made Esteghlal Khuzestan finish champions of the first half of the season.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.varzesh3.com/news/1290187/%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%82%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%84-%D8%AE%D9%88%D8%B2%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86-%DA%86%DA%AF%D9%88%D9%86%D9%87-%D9%82%D9%87%D8%B1%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86-%D9%86%DB%8C%D9%85-%D9%81%D8%B5%D9%84-%D8%B4%D8%AF%D8%9F|title = استقلال خوزستان چگونه قهرمان نیم فصل شد؟}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://jahannews.com/fa/doc/news/462050/%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%82%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%84-%D8%AE%D9%88%D8%B2%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%A7%D9%86-%D9%82%D9%87%D8%B1%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86-%D9%86%DB%8C%D9%85-%D9%81%D8%B5%D9%84|title=جهان نيوز - استقلال خوزستان قهرمان نیم فصل شد|last=Behnegarsoft.com|date=18 December 2015|website=جهان نيوز}}</ref> After a great result with Veisi, Esteghlal Khuzestan managed to keep their shape at the second half of the season.

Veisi later said that our main goal is to take place at [[AFC Champions League]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.varzesh3.com/news/1314554/%D9%88%DB%8C%D8%B3%DB%8C-%D8%B7%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A8-%D9%84%D9%88-%D9%81%D9%88%D9%82-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%A7%D8%AF%D9%87-%D8%A8%D9%88%D8%AF|title=ویسی: طالب لو فوق العاده بود}}</ref> On 8 May 2016, Esteghlal Khuzestan qualified to the [[AFC Champions League]] for the first time after a 1–0 win over [[Padideh F.C.|Padideh]], which led Esteghlal Khuzestan to the top of the league with one game remaining.
