Club career

Al-Nasr

On 3 June 2017, Al-Rawahi extended his contract with

Al-Suwaiq Club, Ahmed was promoted as the first choice keeper at Al-Nasr. The young keeper from Muscat did not disappoint and helped The King club win its 5th Sultan Qaboos Cup title defeating Sohar SC 6-5 on penalties after the match had ended 2-2 after extra time.[4][5]

Before the beginning of the 2018-19 season, he also helped his side clinch their maiden Oman Super Cup title winning 4-2 on penalties against Al-Suwaiq after the match had ended 0-0 after normal time.[6][7]

Al-Seeb

At the end of 2021, Al-Rawahi moved to Al-Seeb.[8] As the first choice goalkeeper wearing the #1, he proceeded to win the 2021-22 Oman Professional League. Al-Seeb also won the Sultan Qaboos Cup and the AFC Cup in 2022, becoming the first Omani club to win a continental title.[9][10][11]

Al-Seeb finished runners-up for the Sultan Qaboos Cup, and third in the league for the 2022-23 season, but the team succeeded in winning the Oman Super Cup.[12]
