One of the many Assyrian players who had to earn their fame and position the hard way through a club that encouraged youth and pure talent.
 
Playing along Iraqi superstars like Husain Sayed, Adnan Dirjal, Haris Mohamed, and many others, Ayoub started to show what he is capable of during the late 70's and early 80's when he earned his spot on the Iraqi National team.
 
He recently is the driving force behind the success of the Lebanese Club Akha Ahly as he lead the club as a manger for the team.
