“Any player would like to play for big clubs in the world but now I’m happy to play for AZ. I need to work hard in order to improve my quality and then I’ll wait for a big move.

“If I want to move to another club, it should be definitely a big club who plays in Champions League. This is exactly what happened for Memphis Depay, he had a magnificent season with Eindhoven when Manchester United offer came up,” Jahanbakhsh said.

“Before signing for AZ, I had an offer from Brighton & Hove Albion who was playing at Championship but I preferred to play in a bigger club who plays in a European competition,” he added.

I learned a lot after that year playing in the Jupiler League (Dutch second tier league) and I won the best player of the season award.

Guus Hidink gave me the prize and he told me this is just the beginning, don’t get satisfy with it,” he added.

Jahanbakhsh scored 4 goals and provided 8 assists in all competitions for AZ Alkmaar this season.
