Adnan Dirjal is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on January 26, 1960 in Baghdad, Baghdad, Iraq.
He secured a position in Iraqi PM Mustafa Al-Kadhimi’s cabinet in May 2020 when he was appointed Minister of Youth and Sports.
Adnan made the step into international football early, helping Iraq win both the CISM World Military Championship and the Gulf Cup in 1979. He later played at three Olympic Games, in 1980, 1984 and 1988, three Gulf Cup victories, and the Asian Games win over Kuwait in 1982. The biggest disappointment in a glittering career was missing the World Cup finals in Mexico in 1986 through injury.
