Former Dinamo and Oțelul Galați midfielder Ahmed Bani, 22, has joined Al-Hussein SC, the reigning Jordanian Pro League champions, on a three-year contract. Having dual Romanian and Jordanian nationality, Bani’s transfer to Al-Hussein marks a strategic step that could lead to his debut with Jordan’s senior national team, potentially participating in the 2026 World Cup. This move comes after his stint with Oțelul Galați and highlights his growing regional profile. Al-Hussein clinched the league title in the last two seasons, edging out rivals like Al Wehdat, making it a competitively ambitious club for Bani’s next career phase[2][4][5].
The signing not only bolsters Al-Hussein’s squad with a player experienced in Romanian top-flight football but also reflects the club’s continued dominance domestically. Bani’s presence could add creative midfield options and international experience to Al-Hussein’s quest to maintain their championship status and compete regionally. Moreover, Bani’s potential involvement with the Jordanian national team may enhance the squad’s depth and tactical versatility ahead of World Cup qualifiers.
