Riyadh: Few Bahraini players have experienced as much success as midfielder Komail Al Aswad, the former gymnast who has been at the heart of all good memories for both club and country for the best part of a decade.

The Riffa born man grew up focusing on gymnastics and was so good at it from an early age that he represented Bahrain in regional competitions before turning 12. He then switched to football where he would soon find his way to his hometown club Riffa SC.
 
Over the course of a decade, Al Aswad won four Bahraini Premier League titles with Riffa SC and was one of their standout performers as they reached the Zonal Final in the AFC Cup™ 2022.
