Zakho Resolves Amjad Attwan's File

Zakho Club set an example of loyalty and stability when it officially announced the renewal of its icon Amjad Attwan's contract for the fourth consecutive season, closing the door on all the offers that poured in for the 'historic scorer' of the Khabor fortress.

The club's president, Chia Amin, officially announced the completion of the signing with Amjad Attwan for the 2026-2027 season of the Iraqi Stars League. The new contract means that Amjad will complete his fourth season with the team, a rare phenomenon in Iraqi football where a star rarely stays with one club for four consecutive seasons.

'Amjad Attwan will remain a Zakho player only' - with this phrase, Chia Amin summarized the club's philosophy. The message is clear: the club is building its project around its number one star, and the player reciprocates the favor by staying despite temptations.

Special sources revealed that Amjad Attwan was highly sought after in the transfer market. Popular clubs like Al-Zawraa, Al-Shorta, and Al-Talaba made tempting offers to the player, hoping for his experience and scoring ability. But the player preferred to continue with the sons of Khabor.

The decision reflects Amjad's connection to Zakho's fans and the city of Zakho itself. He not only plays in the blue jersey but carries the project of 'writing new history' with the team that gave him the captain's armband and full confidence.

*Numbers speak: 10 goals and 6 assists locally.. and 3 goals in the Gulf*  

The numbers justify Zakho's attachment to its star. The last season 2025-2026 was exceptional for Attwan:

- *Iraqi Stars League*: 32 matches, 10 goals, 6 assists. A rare double-digit figure for a midfielder.

- *Gulf Clubs Champions League*: 6 matches, 3 goals, 1 assist. He shone continentally and proved to be a big-game player.

The club described Amjad as the 'historic scorer' and 'leader of the sons of Khabor' - in reference to the Khabor River, a symbol of the city of Zakho. The task now is bigger than individual numbers. Attwan is required to lead a new generation to achieve an accomplishment worthy of the fans' ambitions after seasons of individual brilliance.
