Club career

Eydhafushi

Haisham began his football career at the age of 17, playing for hometown club Eydhafushi in the 2017 Minivan Championship. He made his debut in their first match against Dharavandhoo on 6 April 2017, as a second half substitute, scoring the only goal in the last minutes to secure a narrow 1-0 victory at home.[1] During the post match interview, Eydhafushi coach Mohamed Zahid praised Haisham's performance, saying that he will become a star for Maldives national team if he continues to play like this.[2]

Youth

Haisham was introduced as a Club Eagles under-21 player for the 2017 FAM Youth Championship and played a vital role to help his side win the Youth Championship for third[3] consecutive time, playing every minute of the championship. He also scored his penalty in the shoot-out where they won the final against Maziya.[4]

Senior

Haisham had his first professional contract on 12 January 2018, signing a two year deal with Club Eagles.[5] Eagles stated that he will be the replacement for their former player Mujuthaaz Mohamed who joined Maziya for the 2018 season.[6]

On 25 February 2018, Haisham made his professional debut in their first game of the season against Victory Sports Club in 2018 Malé League, where they won by 4-1.[7]

International career

In July 2019, Haisham was named in the senior squad for the first time in Petar Segrt's 20-man squad participating in the 2019 Indian Ocean Island Games.[8] He made his only appearance in the last group stage match, playing the full 90 minutes in the 3–1 loss to Mayotte.[9]

One month later, in late August, Haisham was called up for the Maldives squad ahead of their World Cup qualifier matches against Guam and China PR.[10] Haisham made his full Maldives debut against Guam on 5 September, where they won 1–0 in Dededo.
