Career

Being of Algerian descent,[2] he grew up in Tensta and started his youth career in Vasalunds IF.[3] He started his senior career as low as Division 6, the eighth tier of Swedish football, for Råsunda IS.[4][2] Climbing up the ladder with Eskilstuna City FK and third-tier club Sollentuna FK, where he also served as team captain, he moved to Superettan club Norrby IF in 2020.[5]

Mammar returned to Eskilstuna and AFC Eskilstuna, another Superettan club, where he also became team captain. Interest from a couple of Allsvenskan clubs accrued,[6][7] with Mammar ultimately choosing to move to Degerfors IF.[8] He made his Allsvenskan debut on 2 April 2023 against Hammarby.[9]

Style of play

Mammar is left-footed and plays as a left back or central defender. In 2022, he was noted for scoring six goals despite his defensive position.[6]
