Born and raised in Norway, Haidar represented them at youth level internationally before switching allegiance forLebanon at senior level. He represented Lebanon at the2019 AFC Asian Cup.
Haidar was born inDrammen, Norway and grew up in the capitalOslo,[3] where he lived in theKlemetsrud [no] neighborhood.[4]
Haidar played forKlemetsrud [no]'s youth sector until he joinedVålerenga's youth department in 2001.[5] He signed a professional contract with the club in 2008,[citation needed] making his debut againstLyn on 15 September as a substitute.[citation needed] In total, Haidar made three appearances for Vålerenga in all competitions in the 2008 season, also winning theNorwegian Cup in his first season as a professional.[6]
In 2009, he was loaned out toSkeid for the entire season, where he made 11 appearances in theFirst Division.[7]
He returned to Vålerenga for the 2010 season and scored his first and second ever senior goals for Vålerenga in his first game since returning from loan againstOppsal in theNorwegian Cup of 2010.[citation needed] He then played his firstTippeligaen game of the season againstStart in an 8–1 win.[citation needed] He finished the season with six appearances and scoring two goals in all competitions.[citation needed]

At the end of the season he was released by Vålerenga and became free agent, but before being released he was offered a new contract at Vålerenga but chose to reject the offer because he wanted more first team football.[8][9] In total he made 21 appearances and scored two goals over three seasons for Vålerenga.[citation needed]
