Playing a pivotal role in qualification from the group matches and going on to score one of the goals of the tournament with a spectacular 30-yard strike in the 1-1 draw against Canada in the final group stages.

In 2013, Zlatko Kranjčar was impressed by the Amirhossein Karimi performance in U-17, U-20 national team and U-23 Sepahan team and recommended Sepahan to sign a 3 years contract with him.[2] He made his debut for Sepahan on 5 December 2013 against Esteghlal.

For 2015–16 Iran Pro League, Amirhossein Karimi joined Gostaresh Foulad F.C. club based on Faraz Kamalvand (Gostaresh Foolad head coach) request. He had a great year in this club and even Igor Štimac (Sepahan head coach at the time) regretted that they did not have Amirhossein Karimi with them in that season.[4]
