Sami Abdullah Mohammed Al-Jaber (Arabic:سَامِي عَبْد الله مُحَمَّد الْجَابِر; born 11 December 1972) is a Saudi Arabianfootball manager and former professionalplayer who played as astriker. He spent the entirety of his career withAl-Hilal, apart from a five-month loan to English clubWolverhampton Wanderers.

Al-Jaber is his country's second highest international goal-scorer with 46 goals in 156 internationals from 1992 to 2006. He appeared in four consecutiveFIFA World Cup tournaments, from 1994 to 2006, scoring in three of them. He was also a member of the Saudi squad which won theAFC Asian Cup in 1996. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest Saudi footballers ever.

Club career

[edit]

Al-Jaber made his Al-Hilal debut in 1989 and spent nearly 20 years at the club. In 2000, he joinedWolverhampton Wanderers on loan,[1] where he made just five appearances in five months.[2] After the club learned that Al-Jaber's father had been taken seriously ill, he was allowed to join the United Arab Emirates side Al-Ain on loan, and this was to spell the end of his time in England.[3] Even so, to this day Al-Jaber remains one of the very few Saudi footballers to have played outside their homeland.

On 21 January 2008, Al-Hilal held atestimonial for Al-Jaber against EnglishPremier League giantsManchester United. Al-Jaber scored a penalty en route to a 3–2 victory over the visitors, in his last game for the club.[4]

International career

[edit]

On 27 May 1998, Al-Jaber made his100th international appearance in a friendly against Norway. At 25 years, four months and 16 days old, this made him the youngest male footballer to reach 100 caps.[5]

After gaining a runners-up medal in the2000 Asian Cup, he appeared in the2002 World Cup but only played in one game, a 0–8 hammering byGermany. He was ruled out of the rest of the competition when his appendix burst and he had to be rushed to hospital.[6]

Managerial career

[edit]

Al-Jaber was named as assistant coach ofAl-Hilal in 2009, one year after he retired from professional football. He worked under notable coaches likeEric Gerets,Gabriel Calderon andThomas Doll. In 2012, he became assistant coach ofLigue 2 sideAuxerre.

On 27 May 2013, Al-Jaber was named the manager ofAl-Hilal, replaced former coachZlatko Dalić. He became the first Saudi coach to manage Al-Hilal after 14 years ofKhalil Ibrahim Al-Zayani in 1999. After his first season in his new career, he was ranked 19th in Football Coach World ranking, even though Al-Hilal decided to replace him. On 19 July 2014,Al Arabi announced his appointment as technical manager.

Personal life

[edit]

Al-Jaber is an advocate of football reforms, having criticised the Saudi Football Federation for its protectionist policy that prevented Saudi talents from going abroad to play better football after Saudi Arabia became the first team to be knocked out of2002 FIFA World Cup.[7]
