Mini bio
How it started.
Omar began his animation career in Jordan in 2005, working on animated television productions at Abu Manjoob Studio. He later became an animation team leader on the Emirati series Shaabia Al Cartoon.
Football found its cartoonist.
He moved into football editorial cartoons in 2010. In a 2011 interview, he recalled friends encouraging him to draw cartoons during the World Cup. He contacted Goal.com, which liked the idea and hired him as its cartoonist.
A world beyond the match report.
His work has appeared with Goal, Bundesliga, Fox Sports and Bleacher Report. He mixes caricature, humour and football history in visual stories that rely little on dialogue. His projects also include ball designs for FIFA Collect’s Football Unites collection.
