Tunisian centre-back Thameur Salhi has joined Al-Kahrbaa Club from Diyala in a completed Iraq Stars League transfer. The 34-year-old arrives as an experienced addition to Al-Kahrbaa’s defensive options, switching clubs within the Iraqi top flight.
Salhi, who plays primarily at centre-back, moves after a spell with Diyala in the same division. His arrival gives Al-Kahrbaa a seasoned organiser at the back as they prepare for the upcoming phase of the domestic campaign, with the club opting to strengthen directly from a league rival.
The defender has built a career that has taken him from Tunisia into Middle Eastern football, with his most recent stint in Iraq providing valuable familiarity with the style and demands of the Stars League. At 34, he brings considerable know-how and leadership qualities to his new side’s back line.
Salhi’s current market valuation stands at around €75,000, underlining his status as a reliable senior professional rather than a developmental signing. The move keeps him in the same competition, limiting the need for adaptation and allowing Al-Kahrbaa to integrate a player already accustomed to Iraqi domestic football.
The transfer sees Al-Kahrbaa secure a Tunisian international-level defender with extensive regional experience as Salhi completes his move from Diyala within the Iraq Stars League.
