In the summer of 2015 Rahmani signed a two–year contract with Tractor Sazi to spend his conscription period at the club. On 24 February 2016 Rahmani scored twice and helped Tractor to a 4–0 victory against Emirati club Al Jazira in the AFC Champions League.

On 3 June 2016, he joined Esteghlal on a two-year contract.

Rahmani was first called up for the Iran national under-15 football team in 2004. He has played for the Iran national football team in all ranks. He was called up and played for the Iran national under-23 football team by Alireza Mansourian in 2011. He was also captain of the under-23 team. On 14 May 2013, Rahmani was called up for the Iran national football team by coach Carlos Queiroz. He made his debut against Oman in a friendly match on 22 May 2013. On 1 June 2014, he was named in Iran's 2014 FIFA World Cup squad by Carlos Queiroz. However, he did not play for Team Melli in the tournament, as he was an unused substitute in three matches.
