Amjad Radhi Yousif Al-Janabi (Arabic: أمجد راضي يوسف الجنابي), (born 15 July 1990) is an Iraqi professional footballer who currently plays for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya in the Iraqi Premier League. He has also previously played in the Iraqi Premier League, where he won the 2009–10 Iraqi Premier League and 2012–13 Iraqi Premier League top scorer awards.
The youngster's goal-scoring rate is remarkable even by Asian standards. He scored a remarkable 31 goals in the 2009/10 Iraqi Premier League season, a feat no one else had achieved for over a decade. Having finished last year’s AFC Cup as top-scorer with Arbil with nine goals, he has continued to cause havoc this season, being on target four times as his side established a six-point cushion at the summit.
He scored an impressive 23 goals during the 2011–12 Iraqi Premier League to help his Erbil to the title and win his first Iraqi premier league title.
