The Kirkuk-born midfielder was a revelation for his hometown club before a tug of war between Pires and Arbil late last year saw him move to the Iraqi league champions Arbil FC, despite having signed a deal to play for Peris FC. He was called for the national team under Radhi Shenaishil to play a friendly match against Saudi Arabia. A top prospect for the future.

2010-2011 The midfielder has stated he plans on attending a high school in Minnesota to play soccer and learn English, Al-Din is said to be part of an exchange program post-Sadaam era with the United States aimed at educating kids about diversity and understanding. 2 other players are to join him, but have not been formally announced.
