Source-derived summary

Ali Jasim Elaibi Al-Tameemi (Arabic: علي جاسم لعيبي التميمي; born 20 January 2004) is an Iraqi professional footballer who plays as a forward for Zakho, and the Iraq national team.

Club career

Al-Karkh

At 14 years old, Ali Jasim made his Iraqi Premier League debut for Al-Karkh against Al-Zawraa on 3 November 2018. He scored his first goal for the club in the last round of the 2018–19 Iraqi Premier League against Amanat Baghdad on 24 July 2019.

Al-Shorta

Ali Jasim joined the defending Iraqi Premier League champions Al-Shorta during the 2019–20 season under coach Abdul-Ghani Shahad, although the season was later abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He made his debut for Al-Shorta in the 2020–21 Iraq FA Cup, coming off the bench in a 5–0 win over Al-Khalis on 17 November 2020. Under Serbian coach Aleksandar Ilić, Jasim made one start and eight substitute appearances in the 2020–21 Iraqi Premier League as Al-Shorta finished in fourth place, and also reached the semi-finals of the Iraq FA Cup.

Al-Kahrabaa

On 28 December 2021, Jasim signed for Al-Kahrabaa. Under coach Luay Salah, Jasim scored four league goals in the 2021–22 season and a further six in the 2022–23 season, where Al-Kahrabaa finished in fifth place, the joint-highest league finish in their history which saw them qualify for the AFC Cup. Jasim also helped Al-Kahrabaa reach the Iraq FA Cup final in 2022, playing the first 60 minutes of the final, which Al-Kahrabaa lost 2–1 to Jasim's former club Al-Karkh.

After Jasim's impressive performances for the Iraq U-20 team, Jasim was close to signing for K.A.A. Gent in Belgium, and also generated interest from Turkish clubs Trabzonspor and Antalyaspor, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Ali Jasim” as iraqi professional footballer. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewStrongest as a route into the people, institutions and dated events that shaped the subject’s public record. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2004, 2018, 2019, 2020—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 2004-01-20. The account is most persuasive where Jasim, Iraqi and professional can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as iraqi professional footballer. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q123281002. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2004, 2018, 2019 and 2020.

Critical limits

Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
