Ruled out Tuesday Jahanbakhsh will miss Tuesday's matchup with Atletico Madrid on Tuesday with a hamstring injury.

Impact Jahanbakhsh picked up his hamstring problem while on international duty with Iran and will now be held out versus Atletico. Even when healthy, the forward has featured exclusively off the bench in Champions League action. As such, his absence is unlikely to significantly impact the starting XI, though it will stretch the club's attacking depth.

Scores as substitute in win Jahanbakhsh scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 2-0 win over Celtic.

Impact Jahanbakhsh was very productive in his 23 minute cameo although it needs to be put in the context of Feyenoord outnumbering their opponents after two quick red cards for Celtic.

Closes season as starter Jahanbakhsh started the final four matches of the season, though he was subbed off before the 75th minute in all of them.

Impact Jahanbakhsh started on the flank for the injured Joel Veltman in the final four matches, but that didn't lead to a ton of fantasy production. When healthy, he's served as mostly a bench option for Brighton, totaling six starts from 21 appearances this past campaign.
