Early years

Hussein was born on February 24, 1977 in Benghazi. In 1988, at the age of 10, he joined the club he grew up supporting as a boy in 1988. Since then, he has advanced through the ranks, playing the youth, reserve, and eventually first, teams.

In the 1995–96 season, Hussein helped the reserve team to the Reserve Premier League title, his first major achievement as a player.

First team

In the next season, he debuted for the first team in its match against Al Suqoor at the age of 19. Initially deployed as a playmaker, Hussein gradually grew in importance to the team. He is a goalscoring midfielder as well, having scored over 60 goals in national competitions. He scored his first goal for the club in his debut season, in a 3-0 victory against Afriqi. He helped his side to their Libyan Cup victory in 1997.

International career

After his performance in the first season, Hussein was selected for the squad that was to play at the 1998 Arab Nations Cup in Qatar. He emerged as an important player for the national team after that, and scored his first international goal against Kenya on January 19, 2004. Hussein has made 11 appearances in FIFA World Cup qualifying matches.

Hussein was an important part of the national team. Many managers, such as Mahmoud Al-Sharif, Yousef Sidqi and the Tunisian Munsaf Arfaoui, built their teams around him and Tarek El Taib, and were committed to selecting him for the squad.

Loyalty

Hussein has received many offers to join various clubs both inside and outside Libya, but has refused them to remain with his boyhood club.
