Club career[edit]

Youth career[edit]

Mohanad became interested in football as a child and started playing for a local team in the Baghdad Al-Jadida district called Timsah Al-Amin.[3] He enrolled at the Ammo Baba Football School[4] at the age of six without a trial after coaches had been impressed with the striker. He then joined the Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya youth team,[5] and he represented them in the Al-Zawraa Youth Championship;[6] he was top scorer at two local tournaments, and was then called up by the Iraq FA to play for Saad Hashim’s under-14 team, and with an outstanding performance,[7] he grabbed the attention of the managers of Al-Shorta.[8]

Al-Shorta[edit]

Early years[edit]

On 24 September 2013, the player signed a five-year contract with Al-Shorta.[8] His competitive debut for the club was under Brazilian coach Lorival Santos in the 2013–14 Iraqi Premier League wearing the number 26 shirt, being substituted onto the field on 85 minutes in the Baghdad Derby against Al-Talaba on 26 March 2014,[9] making him the youngest player to represent Al-Shorta in the club's history at 13 years and 279 days old, and also the youngest player in the history of the six Baghdad Derby matches.[10] Al-Shorta won the league title with 43 points from 21 games, earning Mohanad his first honour at club level.[11] In the 2014–15 season, Mohanad played in a four-team friendly competition called the Baghdad Cup, scoring a penalty in the semi-final shootout which Al-Shorta lost to Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya.[12]

Mohanad was given the number 8 shirt for the 2015–16 season under coach Hakeem Shaker and he scored his first goal for Al-Shorta on 20 September 2015 against Al-Sinaa in the 2015–16 Iraqi Premier League with a header.[13] He made two starts and nine substitute appearances in the group stage of the league, where Al-Shorta finished 4th in Group 2 to qualify to the Elite Group. In the Elite Group, Al-Shorta finished in 7th position and Mohanad was used as a substitute for three of their six matches.

He spent the 2016–17 season on loan at Baghdad club Al-Kahrabaa,[14] and finished as the top scorer for the club with 12 goals in 31 league matches,[15][16] including scoring four goals in the same match against Al-Karkh on 4 January. The club finished 13th in the league.

2017–18 season[edit]

Ali trust college islamabad admission form 2019

After the loan, he returned to Al-Shorta and renewed his contract in October 2017 for three years, taking the number 18 shirt. He scored his first two goals of the season against Naft Al-Junoob in a 2–1 victory in January 2018.[17] He continued to score regularly throughout the season, forming a partnership with fellow striker Alaa Abdul-Zahra. He scored his first Baghdad Derby goal against Al-Zawraa on 20 January and scoring in another Baghdad Derby against Al-Talaba on 30 January. He finished his season with the team with 17 goals and assisted 8 times in 32 appearances in the league. The team finished in 4th position.

2018–19 season[edit]

He began his season with his team with a new coach, Nebojša Jovović, to exploit his speed as he also took on increasing defensive and creative duties. Mohanad scored his first goal and provided an assist in a 3–1 away win over Naft Al-Junoob on 21 October. He scored his second and third in a 3–0 win against Al-Sinaat Al-Kahrabaiya. On 7 November, Mohanad scored his fourth goal against former club Al-Kahrabaa.[18] His fifth and sixth goal with his team came on 24 November including an impressive solo effort,[19] and he scored another extraordinary goal against Al-Naft on 4 March 2019.[20]

His good form at club level saw him on the radar of many of European and Asian clubs.[21] After his successful 2019 AFC Asian Cup campaign with the national team, there were official offers made from Italian clubs Juventus and Cagliari,[22] Czech club Slavia Prague, Danish club Midtjylland, Belgian club Genk,[23] Portuguese club Benfica, Turkish club Galatasaray, Greek club AEK Athens and Emirati club Al-Ain but the club rejected the offers on 29 January 2019, meaning he would spend the rest of the season at Al-Shorta.[24]

The end of the winter transfer window did not stop clubs from expressing their interest in Mohanad, with Al-Shorta's vice-president Abdul-Wahab Al-Taei stating that offers had also now been made by English club Manchester City, Turkish clubs Fenerbahçe, İstanbul Başakşehir and Hatayspor,[25] Russian club Akhmat Grozny, Qatari club Al-Wakrah and an unnamed Japanese club.[26][27][28][29]

Since January the Qatari team Al-Duhail showed great interest in signing Iraqi forward. In July the club agreed to pay $2 million transfer fee.[30][31]

International career[edit]

Youth[edit]

Mohanad made his debut for Iraq's Under-14s in 2013 at the age of just 13. He was the joint-top scorer at the 2013 Asian Youth Games with six goals in Nanjing in August 2013, where the Iraq U-14s beat Singapore,[32] Kuwait and Thailand in the quarterfinals before they lost to Iran in the semis and the third and fourth match on penalties to North Korea.[33][7] In the first ever edition of the AFC U-14 Championship in 2014,[34] Mohanad won the top scorer award with six goals[35] and his team won the cup.[36] In the 2015 WAFF U-16 Championship, Mohanad won the top scorer award with five goals and his team won the championship.[37][38]

Senior[edit]

He played his first match for the Iraq national team in a friendly against United Arab Emirates on 17 December 2017,[39] however the match was not counted as an official international game, and so his official debut came against Bahrain in the 23rd Arabian Gulf Cup on 23 December 2017.[15] He scored for Iraq in an unofficial friendly game against Iraqi Premier League club Naft Al-Junoob on 24 February 2018.[40] His first and second international goals for Iraq were in a friendly match against Saudi Arabia on 28 February 2018.[15] He scored his third goal, a header, for Iraq in a 1–1 draw with Syria during the 2018 International Friendship Championship.[41] On 10 September, Mohanad scored his fourth goal against Kuwait.[42] He played against Argentina on 11 October 2018,[43] coming on as a second-half substitute.[44] He scored his fifth goal against Saudi Arabia on 15 October.[45] On 20 November, he scored a goal against Bolivia but it was cancelled due to offside, coming on as a substitute in the 67th minute.[46] His sixth goal with his national team came against China on 24 December, coming on as a substitute in the 62nd minute.[47] He was nominated by AFC as one of the top young talents;[48] he was described as the youngest player who has the potential to changing the shape of the game before 2019 AFC Asian Cup.[2] He scored his seventh goal against Vietnam on 8 January 2019,[49] and his eighth against Yemen on 12 January 2019,[50] followed by a goal against Jordan to help Iraq win the 2019 International Friendship Championship.

Style of play[edit]

“We always trust Mohanad. He has good feet, he can connect powerfully with headers and he is very clever in the box.'

– Iraq youth coach Saad Hashim commenting on Mohanad[35]

Mohanad is talented with good technique, an adept header of the ball, and ability to score impressive goals, in the air and with both his feet. He is physically strong with good skills, tactical intelligence, opportunist, and confidence in going at opponents with numerical superiority. He also known for his speed, and beat defenders with sudden turns, as well as his vision, which gave him the ability to link-up with and provide assists for teammates.[2][7][48][53][54]

Personal life[edit]

The former international striker Ali Salah is one of his cousins.[55] In his free time, Mohanad enjoys bowling. Mohanad played under the name of Hassan Ali during the 2015–16 season with Al-Shorta and the 2016–17 season with Al-Kahrabaa.[56] While at Al-Kahrabaa, he told the Football-IQ newspaper: 'My official data and official documents in the records of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) are under the name Mohanad Ali, which is my real name. All it is is that an error in my personal data then led to me being called the name Hassan. I do not want to return to this issue which bothered me a lot, especially after my forms have been resolved by legal means'.[57] Football-IQ confirmed later in the year that an Iraqi court had ruled that his AFC documents under the name Mohanad Ali were correct,[58] granting him the right to cancel his erroneous passport and obtain a new corrected one, thus allowing him to represent Iraq again.[59][60]

General elections were held in Nigeria on 23 February 2019 to elect the President, Vice President, House of Representatives and the Senate.[1][2][3][4] The elections had initially been scheduled for 16 February, but the Election Commission postponed the vote by a week at 03:00 on the original polling day, citing logistical challenges in getting electoral materials to polling stations on time.[5] In some places, the vote was delayed until 24 February due to electoral violence.[6] Polling in some areas was subsequently delayed until 9 March, when voting was carried out alongside gubernatorial and state assembly elections.[7]

The elections were the most expensive ever held in Nigeria, costing ₦69 billion more than the 2015 elections.[8][9]

Incumbent president Muhammadu Buhari won his reelection bid, defeating his closest rival Atiku Abubakar by over 3 million votes. He has been issued a Certificate of Return,[10][11] and will be sworn in on May 29, 2019, former date of Democracy Day (Nigeria).[12]

Presidential debates[edit]

A presidential and vice-presidential debate was organised by the Nigerian Elections Debate Group (NEDG) and the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria (BON), with invitations extended to five of the 78 presidential candidates. The Debate Group explained the exclusion of other candidates as a measure to ensure the effectiveness of the debate and not an endorsement of the candidates chosen.[32][33]

The vice presidential debate was held on 14 December 2018, at the Transcorp Hilton Hotels in Abuja. All invited vice presidential candidates were present, with candidates discussing their health, education, security and foreign affairs policies.[34][35]

The presidential debate occurred on 19 January 2019, and took place at the same venue. The two leading presidential contestants were absent, with Atiku Abubakar leaving the venue upon discovering that Muhammadu Buhari was absent. Fela Durotoye (ANN), Oby Ezekwesili (ACPN) and Kingsley Moghalu (YPN) continued the debate, while criticising the absence of the others. Mark Eddo moderated the debate.[36][37]

Senate[edit]

Senate PresidentBukola Saraki (PDP) was defeated in Kwara Central by the APC candidate.[47]

Currently, 64 incumbent Senators will not be returning as members of the Ninth Senate, having been defeated during the elections. While the APC will have a simple majority of votes in the Senate, it will not have a supermajority (74 votes), meaning it cannot push through major bills on its own. Three Senate seats have yet to be filled.[48]
