Daniyal Mohammad Reza Ali Nazari (born 2 September 1989)[1] is a Pakistani former professional footballer who played as a forward. Ali had been praised for his dribbling abilities and commitment on the pitch.[2]
Club career
Ali started playing around 12–13 years old, in a local team near his home called Brønshøj for fun with his friends. After a match against B93 Copenhagen, he was called by them and joined the club. As 15 years old he signed his first contract with the team. He served as the team captain in the u17 and u19 level in the Danish youth league.[3] He made his debut for the B93 senior team at the age of 17. In his debut season, Ali played 27 games and scored five goals.[4]
With chances of breaking into the senior team bleak, Ali then linked up with Køge in the Danish 1st Division, where he helped them gain promotion to the Danish SuperLiga until he received an 8-month injury.[3] He signed for BK Avarta as a vice captain in the Danish 2nd division. He moved to Svebølle Danish 2nd Division in January 2014.[5] After a short stint at Hollbaek, he moved back to his former club B93 in 2016 on a one-season deal.[4] At the end of the year, his contract was renewed for an additional season.[6] Ali left the club by the end of 2017.[7]
In 2018, he signed for Greve Fodbold, where he was joined by national team fellow goalkeeper Yousuf Butt. He moved to Ishoj in 2019,[8] until signing for Tårnby FF in September 2021.[9][10] He stayed in the club until his eventual retirement in February 2023.[11]
International career
He was called in the camps for Danish youth national team at U-17 nor U-19 level, but did not get selected.[12]
He made international debut in 2012 with Pakistan against Singapore, and scored his first goal for the team against Nepal at the 2018 SAFF Championship.[13]
Personal life
Mohammad's father Qurban Ali was also a footballer, and was previously persuaded to play for the Pakistan national team.[12]
