Career

Early career

Ayad is from the city of Nasiriyah and played in various local teams before joining Al-Nasiriya SC where he played for a season, before joining Iraqi Premier League side Zakho. He spent one season in Zakho but struggled for playtime.

Al Mina'a

He moved south and joined Iraqi division side Al-Minaa SC where he was an instrumental figure in getting them promoted back to the Premier League.[2][3] He signed a new contract in September 2023 to remain in the club for another season[4] The following season he once again remained an important part of the team as the club managed to escape relegation despite financial and administrative issues. In July, he scored the season's quickest goal, netting in 27 seconds against Duhok SC.[5] In August he signed a new contract to remain at Al Mina'a for the 2024-2025 season.[6]

Despite signing a new contract, Ayad announced that he agreed to leave the club by mutual consent a week later.

Newroz

On September 10, 2024, Ayad joined Newroz on a free transfer after being released from Al Mina'a.
