Alireza Jahanbakhsh @ N.E.C. Nijmegen | 2014-2015

[Ghermez Agha]

Today I read several articles who state that Jahanbakhsh might be going to Norwich City who have been promoted to the Premier League last week. Could it be true? Let's see if this is..

Looks like Norwich City has the best papers to get him since they will probably pay NEC a lot for Alireza. It may be very well possible that we see him in Premier League following season based on the sources.

But still, every week we hear a lot of clubs are interested so this is getting really confusing.

To add to kiarash's long list of sources here is another:

http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2015/05/27/report-norwich-to-rival-celtic-for-nec-nijmegen-winger-alireza-j/

Would be sweet if true. Personally I think he could use another year or two in the eredivise but obviously I would be very happy if this goes through. I've been dying to have another iranian in the premier league since Ashkan left.

I watched Norwich against midlesborough in championship play off final , I must say they play long and direct, not something that would perhaps suit JB, however he would be more guaranteed to get first team place and prove himself in Premiership playing for a minnows than a top team. He can then transfer to a top team in this leauge next season. He certainly has my blessing.

Yeah but that's how all teams in the Championship play, lol. Once they come to PL, they can't do that anymore and have to change their style (unless Tony Pulis is the Manager).

IMO, if Jahanbakhsh scores 1 goal in PL it will get more publicity then scoring 3 goals in Holland. Plus, what if he goes to PSV and hardly gets any game time?

To add to kiarash's long list of sources here is anither:

The problem for me is that if he stays for another year in Eredivise and doesn't perform well, is he going to get all these offers? Or is he getting these offers because he has had a great season? IMO, Jahanbakhsh and van Wolfswinkel will be destroying PL defenders next season

I don't think they're interested in him based on one season in a pretty weak league like the jupiler league....they definitely have seen how he performed in the Dutch top flight and saw how he became even more explosive and was above the level of the league he was in....so I think two solid seasons in holland is what ultimately attracted interest. Being part of a WCQ and AC roster probably helped his case a bit too.

I love this sentence

The 21-year-old winger is regarded as an extremely bright prospect in European football

My god if Jahanbakhsh goes to Premier league I will be forgetting about Dejagah's heartbreaking story leaving Premier League for Qatar in a heartbeat!

I disagree, having watched the championship on and off in the last 10 years what I agree with is that they all play a physical game but some not all play decent passing football too, midlesborough certainly did against Norwich in the play off final. What a contrast in style!

I love this sentence

This statement is curiously interesting too!!?

"with a transfer away from the Netherlands all-but guaranteed"

Dejagah should seriously fear for his TM spot with Jahanbakhsh upcoming. He thinks that being in Qatar won't make him a benchwarmer for TM but I assure you he will regret it when a hard working footballer with class mentality like AJB enters the Premier League at the age of 21 ready to take over Ashkan's spot and deservingly so.

In a year or 2 that could very well happen. Imagine if we had 2 premier league wingers, one on each side.. But then again I would have a hard time seeing Hajsafi on the bench too

[persepolisfan]

Jahanbaksh isn't weak, but he would be ripped apart in the PL. but then again, it could be a good move if they (NC) don't relegate and JB gets tougher and more physical

[Z Joon]

Guys clearly if Norwich didn't think that Alireza was ready they wouldn't have shown any interest in the first place. Why would they want to pay for a player that they know would get "outmuscled" in the EPL?

might be true since on navad he said a championship team who has a team that is preparing for the epl ,i think epl is good also, he can play all games, also a good dutch team like psv,ajax or feynord is good also

My grandma said if he goes back to Jupiler league and helps another dutch team to promote to Eredivise, it will be better since he gets another bull award. I have no choice but to I accept her advice.
