Edmílson Junior is a Brazilian-born forward who naturalised for Qatar and featured in their 2022 World Cup squad on home soil. A direct, pacy winger who joined Al Duhail in 2018 after spells in Belgian football with Standard Liège and St. Truiden, he has become one of the Qatar Stars League's more consistent attacking threats. His Brazilian technical background gives him a different profile to Qatar's homegrown forwards — comfortable running in behind and taking on defenders one-on-one. He adds width and unpredictability to Qatar's attacking options in international football.
