Ayman Ben Mohamed (arabic: أيمن بن محمد; born 8 December 1994) is a professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1 club Espérance de Tunis.[2] Born in England, he plays for the Tunisia national team.

Club career

[edit]

Born in London to an Irish mother and Tunisian father, Ben Mohamed and his family moved to Dublin at the age of two.[3] In 2012, he signed for UCD while also studying business, staying with the Students for three seasons before moving onto Longford Town. In November 2015, it was announced Ben Mohamed would join Bohemians for the 2016 season.[4]

After a string of impressive performances for The Gypsies, he attracted international attention, eventually signing for Tunisian side Espérance de Tunis for an undisclosed sum.[5]

In 2017, Ben Mohamed suffered a cruciate ligament injury, ruling him out for over a year. He returned in 2018 in his new position at left back, helping his side win the 2018 CAF Champions League final and qualify for the 2018 FIFA Club World Cup.[6][7]

A free agent after his Espérance de Tunis contract expired in summer 2019, Ben Mohamed joined Ligue 2 club Le Havre AC in August 2019, agreeing a contract until 2022.[8][9] He made his Ligue 2 debut for the club vs Grenoble on 23 August 2019, coming on in the 82nd minute and scoring the third goal in a 3–1 win.[10]

On 29 January 2021, Ben Mohamed moved to Turkish club Denizlispor, on a loan deal until the end of the season.[11]

On 31 July 2023, Ben Mohamed signed for Ligue 2 club Guingamp.[12]

International career

[edit]

In May 2016, whilst at Bohemians Ben Mohamed earned a surprise call-up to the Tunisia squad for the African Cup of Nations qualifier against Djibouti despite never having previously declared for The Eagles of Carthage.[13]

On 2 October 2018, he was called up again and earned his first cap in a 2–1 victory over Niger.[14]
