The beginning of an era
I started my football playing career and joined AI Ahly Academy Kuwait in 2014 when I was 7 years old, started my position as a defensive midfielder and started on as a substitute on my first game against Barcelona Academy in the Champions Cup, came on in 77th minute as the game ended a 1-1 draw. I made my first start against AL Ahly Academy Dubai in a friendly match as the game ended a 2-0 win as I scored once and the rest was history for me as a player for AL Ahly Academy.
Trophies, awards and more...
I spent my time at AL Ahly Academy Kuwait as a player for 9 and half years, cementing myself as one of the greats in the history. I moved to a normal box-to-box central midfielder, defending and attacking with bravery to score goals and create chances. I played 291 games for the club in those nine and half years, scoring 107 goals, 76 assists and winning 15 trophies including 7 league titles and 1 Champions Cup. Played in 11 finals including 3 Champions Cup finals winning one but losing twice. Despite that, I scored 9 goals in 11 finals and assisting 3 times.
Not only the trophies came, the awards also came as well as I won the best player of the team 4 seperate times from 2016 to 2019. I won the player of the season in the league twice in 2017 and in 2019, winning also the golden boot once in 2017 and involved team of the year 6 times in 2016,2017,2018,2019,2021 and 2022.
The end of an era
After nine and half years, I announced my decision to leave AL Ahly Academy Kuwait as a football player as it will be most likely the last time I will play football as a football player for AL Ahly Academy Kuwait and I became more focused on becoming a football coach to test myself more and that was the end to a thrilling career as a football player with all the trophies, awards and incredible memories with my family, coaches and friends.
