Shehab Ahmed Salem Ali Alawlaqi (born 29 March 1984), is an Emirati midfield player who plays for Ajman Club and the UAE national team.

Career in Al Ain FC

Shehab usually plays as a left midfielder but can also be useful as a Winger or as Left side back. He sometimes took the set pieces for Al Ain FC. He was also known for his fast flanks down the left side and his accurate crosses which favor the attackers of his team.

He used to be an important player to any coach who trains and used to start the majority of the matches but recently he has been benched due to several injuries that had followed him for almost two seasons.

He is nicknamed "Recoba" by his fans, this is because he shares the same playing style as that of Uruguayan footballer Alvaro Recoba.

After a long absence that lasted for almost two seasons, Shehab made a phenomenal comeback in the Etisalat Emirates Cup competition and scored the winning goal in the finale against Al-Wahda in the 73rd minute which handed Al Ain FC the first Etisalat Emirates Cup.

He left Al Ain in June 2012 to sign with Ajman Club.
