Ibrahim Alma (Arabic: ابراهيم عالمة; born 18 October 1991 in Umm al-'Adam, Homs, Syria) is a Syrian footballer. He plays as Goalkeeper for football club Al-Jaish in Syrian Premier League.

Career

Club

In 2010, Alma started his career with Al-Wathba from Homs. Later on, he played for Al-Shorta, Al-Wahda and Al-Ittihad, before moving abroad to play for Sepahan in Iran in 2017.

The termination of Alma's expatriate transfer has occurred for three times due to his support to Al-Assad government. The first cancellation was in the 2014–15 season with the Saudi club Al-Shabab. In June 2018, Alma signed for Al-Qadsiah FC, before the club decided to terminate his contract two weeks later. In August 2019, Austria Wien canceled signing Alma, due to pleas from anti-regime Syrians.

International

Alma started playing for Syria in 2012. He was part of the team which played against Australia in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification – AFC Fourth Round.
