In 2015, Mohamad Haidar returned to Lebanon to play for Safa, and won the Lebanese Premier League 2015–16. Following that season, Haidar moved to Ahed.
International career
Haidar made his international debut for Lebanon on 17 August 2011, in a friendly against Syria.[4] His first international goal came on 16 October 2012, in a friendly against Yemen; he helped his side win 2–1.[4] In 2013 Haidar scored twice in the 2015 AFC Asian Cup qualification, against Thailand and Iran respectively.[4] In December 2018, Haidar was called up for the 2019 AFC Asian Cup squad.[6] He played in all three group stage games, against Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and North Korea.[4]
