Feyenoord (almost) has Alireza Jahanbakhsh in | Football

sport">Jahanbakhsh left the Netherlands in 2018 as top scorer of the Eredivisie. The Iranian international had left a stunning impression at AZ, scoring 21 goals as a winger. That earned him a lucrative transfer to the Premier League. Brighton paid approximately 20 million euros to AZ.

sport">In southern England, Jahanbakhsh never got off the ground. The technically gifted winger often sat on the bench and came mainly as a substitute in three years to 50 Premier League matches. In it he scored twice.

sport">Despite his lesser period in England, people in South Rotterdam know that Jahanbakhsh can give a quality injection to the selection with his luggage. In the lower-rated Eredivisie, the attacker was a great success with 37 goals and 31 assists in 111 games at AZ, where he also made himself known at NEC with 19 goals and 22 assists in 64 matches.

sport">Feyenoord therefore has the successor to Berghuis. Trainer Arne Slot makes no secret of the fact that he would also like to add a right central defender to his selection, now that Lutsharel Geertuida is sidelined for some time with a knee injury and midfielder Leroy Fer is used as an emergency bandage in the back. For this, the Croat Mario Vuskovic of Hajduk Split is in the picture.

Guus Til

sport">An interesting aspect is also that Jahanbakhsh will be reunited at Feyenoord with former teammate Guus Til. Til also had an excellent season in the 2017-2018 season, in which he made a name for himself as a scoring, attacking midfielder. Til will be rented by Feyenoord from the Russian Spartak Moscow next season.
