[edit] Career

[edit] Youth

Ibrahim grew up in Richfield, Minnesota, attended Richfield High School, and played for local club team called Wings United. In 2005 Ibrahim was part of the US National U-17 residency program, based at the IMG Soccer Academy in Bradenton, Florida, and later attended the Edison Academy.

[edit] Professional

Ibrahim was drafted in the second round of the 2007 MLS SuperDraft by FC Dallas; at the time he was the second-youngest player ever to be selected in an MLS SuperDraft, following 14-year old Freddy Adu in 2004.

Ibrahim never played a first team game in Dallas, and he was traded to Toronto FC in June 2008 in exchange for a conditional draft pick in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft. He made his MLS debut - and scored his first professional goal - on July 12, 2008 against Chicago Fire.[2]

It was announced on November 18, 2010 that Ibrahim would graduate from the MLS Generation Adidas program at the end of the 2010 season.[3] Ibrahim was waived on December 3.

[edit] International

Ibrahim was a member of the U.S. National U-17 residency program, based at the IMG Soccer Academy in Bradenton, Florida, and was a member of the US team that lost to Germany in the Round of 16 at the 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup in South Korea. He appeared in all four matches during the tournament. Ibrahim has since been called up by Thomas Rongen to participate in matches and training camps with the U-20 national team.Ibrahim also took part in the US U-20 National team that won the 2010 Milk Cup in Northern Ireland.
