Career
In 2010, Ahmed won the 2010 Qatari Stars Cup with Al-Sadd. He was the top scorer of the tournament, with 8 goals in 7 games, including the only goal in the final against Umm Salal.[6] He was offered a contract with Belgian club Standard Liège in February 2011, after his brilliant performance in the 2011 Asian Cup, but rejected the offer.[7]
Ahmed was sidelined with injury for most of the 2010/11 season, as a result he missed Al Sadd's historic triumph in the 2011 AFC Champions League. He returned from injury for the 2011/12 season.
