Club career

Al Dali started his senior career at his hometown club Al-Nawair in 2015. In 2018, he signed for Doha-based club Qatar, and was loaned out to Iraqi side Amanat Baghdad.[3] In 2019, he returned to Syria to join Tishreen, where he won two consecutive league titles in 2019–20 and 2020–21, having played the first half of the campaign for the latter. In January 2021, he moved to Kuwaiti club Al-Arabi,[4] in which he won the Kuwaiti Premier League. In January 2022, he signed for fellow Kuwaiti side Al-Shabab.[5]

Later that year, he returned back home to join Al-Fotuwa.[6] In his debut season, he scored a stoppage-time winner in a 2–1 away victory over Al-Wathba, keeping his club on top of the league by just one point ahead of Al-Ittihad with one match remaining.[7] On 30 May 2023, Al Dali scored two goals and provided an assist for Al-Fotuwa in a 4–1 victory over Al-Majd on the final matchday of the 2022–23 season, which secured their third title in the league after 32 years.[8] In addition, he concluded the season as his club's top scorer with 12 goals, two goals behind league's top scorer Mahmoud Al Baher.[9] Subsequently, he joined Iraqi side Naft Missan in July 2023.[10]

Al Dali represented Syria U23 during the 2020 AFC U-23 Championship, scoring a stoppage-time equalizer in a 2–2 draw against Qatar,[11] and an 88th-minute winner in a 2–1 victory against Japan,[12] securing his national team's progress to the quarter-finals.

In 2021, he became part of the Syrian senior team, netting his first goal on 24 March 2022 in a 3–0 away win over Lebanon during the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification.[13] On 2 January 2024, Al Dali was called up for the 2023 AFC Asian Cup in Qatar, replacing the injured Mardik Mardikian.[14]
