Club career

Early career

Born in Germany, Azaizeh fell in love with football while living there at a young age.[1] His parents moved to Germany in the early 1990s to pursue their international studies. When he returned to Jordan, he quickly joined Prince Ali's youth centers, revealing his talent in the process.[1] He represented Al-Ramtha's under-14 category, and rose through the club's ranks.

Al-Ramtha

He made his senior debut during the 2021 Jordanian Pro League season against Al-Faisaly, being a part of the club's league-winning season.[1]

Al-Khaldiya (loan)

On 16 January 2025, Azaizeh signed with Bahraini Premier League club Al-Khaldiya on loan.[3] On 29 January, Al-Khaldiya were crowned the first-ever champions of the Khalid Bin Hamad Cup, with Azaizeh scoring the winning goal and receiving the best player of the match.[4] He did not however score a single league goal for the club.[5]

Kazma

On 30 May 2025, Al-Ramtha agreed to sell Azaizeh to Kuwait Premier League club Kazma for 220 thousand dollars, with Azaizeh signing on a three-year contract. A member of Al-Ramtha's board of directors revealed that the club will receive up to 170 thousand dollars from Kazma and 50 thousand dollars from the player.[6] The signing was confirmed by Kazma on 7 June 2025.[7][8]

Azaizeh was rumoured to leave Kazma to join an Emirati club with a significant fee, as well as to make the switch to join the Emirati national team, to which he declined the rumours of naturalizing via an Instagram story, and rejecting the offer as a result.[9] Days later, he became linked to move to Saudi club Al Shabab.[10]

Al-Shabab (loan)

On 27 January 2026, Azaizeh signed with Saudi Pro League club Al-Shabab on a six-month loan.[11][12] Two days later, he made his debut for the club as a substitute in a 4–0 win against Al-Hazem.[13][14]

He scored his first goal for Al-Shabab on 17 February 2026 during the 13–0 victory against Al-Tadamun Hadramaut in the AGCFF Gulf Club Champions League.[15]

International career

Azaizeh came back to the under-23 program for the 2026 AFC U-23 Asian Cup qualifiers, to which he registered a goal agsinst Chinese Taipei and Turkmenistan, respectively.[17][18] Azaizeh was initially not called up to the under-23 roster for the 2026 AFC U-23 Asian Cup. However, on 7 January 2026, he was called up to the roster after Ahmad Al-Moghrabi suffered a knee injury, as well as a need to have an additional attacking threat.[19][20] Azaizeh would have an immediate impact for the team, as he would score two goals in Jordan's 3–2 win over Saudi Arabia.[21][22] He then led Jordan to the quarter-finals, after scoring the winning goal against Kyrgyzstan.[23] Despite Jordan eventually getting eliminated on penalties against eventual champions Japan, Azaizeh managed to take the lead against Japan.[24] Azaizeh was ultimately among the standout names of the tournament.[25]
