Sep 25, 2024 - FASMohammad Abualnadi was officially announced today as the Red Giants' latest defender and left winger to compete in the Malaysian League for the 2024/2025 season, just before the transfer window deadline.
The Jordanian-American player started his career with Kansas Academy when he was 18 years old. He was in America for five seasons playing in the US Open Cup with Sporting Kansas City's main squad, MLS Next Pro and USL Championship with Sporting Kansas City II. He played in 11 games as a youth player before receiving an offer to fly to Jordan with Al-Hussein SC.

The 2024 season was a stepping stone for the 185cm tall player when he received a National call-up to join a training camp in July before finally making his first appearance with Jordan's main squad against North Korea in an international friendly on the 23rd of August. He had also been listed in two matches of the third round of the 2026 World Cup qualification campaign against Kuwait and Palestine recently.

The head coach of Selangor FC, Nidzam Jamil, expressed his confidence on the addition of the player playing on the left side of the team, "As a coach, I believe that he will be a valuable asset for the team as a defender and winger on the left side. I also see his potential to strengthen the dynamics of the defensive line, especially in the ACL Two 2024/25 campaign."
Selangor FC welcomes Abualnadi. Hopefully, he can strengthen the Red Giants defensive and offensive line on the left side for the 2024/25 Malaysian League season and the ACL Two 2024/25 campaign. #AbualnadiIsRed
