JordanActive

Ali Olwan returned to Qatar with Al-Sailiya on 24 January 2026 and is their centre-forward for the 2026–27 Stars League, after a year at Al-Karma and a season at Selangor.

Career

He came through Al-Wehdat and Al-Jazeera in Amman, then scored regularly at Al-Shamal (2022–24) with a 2024 loan at Al-Khor. Selangor signed him in August 2024; he scored in a 2–1 AFC Champions League Two win over Jeonbuk on 23 October 2024.

Al-Karma of the Iraq Stars League took him on 25 July 2025 on a one-year deal (BeSoccer: 11 games, five goals). On 24 January 2026 Al-Sailiya paid a reported $500–600k to bring him back to Doha on a contract to 28 June 2027. FotMob has three Sailiya appearances by late August 2026.

How they play

A 1.84 m centre-forward who can play wide. He is Jordan’s first-choice striker, with Transfermarkt listing 62 caps and 28 international goals as of May 2026.

Where they are now

FotMob has Al-Sailiya’s next Stars League fixture against Al-Shahaniya on 29 August 2026. A late-August Kings League MENA role as Red Zone FT ‘president’ is a side project, not a club move.
