Squad19 Oct 2026

Adel Abubaker Fadaq breaks a bone — 64 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 64 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match17 Oct 2026

Al Nasr punish Al Ahli for switching off

2 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Salem Al Junaibi will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Al Ahli escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Salem Al Junaibi scores twice — 8.31

Two goals and a mark of 8.31 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Nicolás Campisi keeps Al Ahli in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Jacob Awoute is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Hamdan Nader in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Al Ahli this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

One of those days for Walid Ismail

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.21, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Match17 Oct 2026

Al Ahli and Al Nasr take a point apiece

It finished 3‑3, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Rashid Khalfan will replay that one

1 error, one goal, and a night in front of the same three seconds. He will see it tonight, tomorrow and probably in February, and everybody who has played knows exactly which frame he keeps stopping on.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Adel Abubaker Fadaq breaks a bone — 87 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 87 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Ahmed Omar runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 26. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Salem Al Junaibi in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Al Ahli this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Rashid Khalfan is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 18 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Match26 Sep 2026

Al Ahli get the job done against Dibba

A 2‑0 win over Dibba, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad28 Sep 2026

A late step up for Hamad Omar

At 28 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A fracture rules Adel Abubaker Fadaq out for 120 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Al Ahli will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market31 Aug 2026

Abdullah Rashid hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Al Ahli can pretend not to have heard.

The terraces31 Aug 2026

Al Ahli sell a favourite for $650.0K

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Rashid Juma was one of the reasons people came, and $650.0K does not replace that by itself.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Al Ahli

Hamdan Nader was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market31 Aug 2026

Business is business: Rashid Juma goes

Lokomotivi paid $650.0K and Al Ahli took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Hamad Omar has improved at 27, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 3 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Adel Abubaker Fadaq breaks a bone — 128 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 128 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market24 Aug 2026

Hamad Omar asks to leave Al Ahli

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Al Ahli

Salem Al Junaibi was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market3 Aug 2026

Al-Khaleej come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Al Ahli did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market3 Aug 2026

Spartak Moscow watching Omar Obaid

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Al Ahli have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Market3 Aug 2026

Salem Al Junaibi wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Al Ahli hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Al Ahli

Salem Al Junaibi was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Hamdan Nader falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Market3 Aug 2026

Hamad Omar is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Al Ahli has been clear about where Hamad Omar stands, which is more than many ever get.
