Mohammed Al-Hakim (
Arabic: محمد الحكيم; born 15 April 1985) is a Swedish Iraqis football referee. Born in Iraq, Al-Hakim moved to Sweden with his family when he was eight years old and settled in Köping, where he still resides.[1]
He became a professional referee in 2008 and has been an Allsvenskan referee since 2012. Al-Hakim has refereed 95 matches in Allsvenskan and 39 matches in Superettan as of January 2017.[2] In 2015, he also became a FIFA referee.[3]
Al-Hakim received much praise from both
Svenska Fotbollförbundet and received a prize at the annual Fotbollsgalan.[4] In August 2015, he was also noticed for his activities on social media, when he started a Facebook page where he openly answered questions regarding his own in-game-decisions. Al-Hakim later closed the profile, citing "lack of time" as the major cause.[5]
Outside of football, he works part-time as an officer in the Swedish Armed Forces.[6]
Legal issues
In 2021, it was announced that Al-Hakim had avoided paying taxes on UEFA compensation for years by not reporting the compensation to the Swedish Tax Agency.[7]
