German-Iraqi Footballer Ibrahim Nadir Named MVP in Hong Kong First Division

Ibrahim Nadir, a 27-year-old German with Iraqi roots, has made a name for himself in Hong Kong's football scene. After initially working as a German teacher, Nadir has dedicated himself to football, impressing locals with his skills and earning the MVP Award in the Hong Kong First Division League.

Nadir's journey to Hong Kong began after completing his business studies in the USA. He earned his bachelor's degree in South Carolina and his master's in California, where he also played college football for the universities. After graduation, he played in New Zealand's first league before moving to Hong Kong.

In Hong Kong, Nadir initially considered playing for a club in the Philippines. However, he decided against it due to unprofessional playing conditions. Instead, he joined a Hong Kong club and had a stellar season, playing 21 games, scoring 14 goals, and making 10 assists. His exceptional performance earned him the MVP Award in the Hong Kong First Division League.

Born in Wekeln and raised in Willich, Nadir's football journey has taken him across the globe. He grew up in Germany, earned his degrees in the USA, played in New Zealand, and now finds himself in Hong Kong. Despite being invited to the Iraqi U20 national team, Nadir did not accept due to his lack of Iraqi citizenship.

Ibrahim Nadir plans to stay in Hong Kong for another football season, building on his successful first year. His impressive performance has set high expectations for the upcoming football games today. With his international experience and dedication, Nadir is poised to continue making a significant impact on Hong Kong's football scene.
