Club career
Youth
Chakroun began his youth career at Fortuna Sachsenross, which he joined at age five.[2] He grew up playing football on the streets and at the football pitch at Welfenplatz in the List quarter of Hanover.[2][3] Chakroun later joined the youth system of Eintracht Braunschweig,[3] who signed him from Fortuna Sachsenross,[4] but was released by the club.[4] He then moved to HSC Hannover,[5][6] where he played until his first year of under-19 football.[7][8] During the winter of 2021–22,[4] Chakroun joined JFV Calenberger Land's under-19 team,[9] where he spent one season.[7] He was brought to the club by coach Timo Struckmeier, who had identified him while watching him play for HSC Hannover.[4]
Hannover 96
2023–24: Reserve team
In the summer of 2023, Chakroun joined Hannover 96 II, the reserve team of Hannover 96 competing in the Regionalliga Nord, the fourth tier of German football.[10] Struckmeier brought him to the club, where he became assistant coach to Daniel Stendel.[4] In his debut season, he played a key role in helping the team secure first place in the league and achieve promotion to the 3. Liga,[11] recording eight goals and 12 assists in 34 appearances.[12] On 19 April 2024, he signed his first professional contract with Hannover 96, valid until 30 June 2026.[9]
2024–25: Transition to the first team
During the 2024–25 season, Chakroun was integrated into the first-team squad of Hannover 96, which competed in the 2. Bundesliga.[11] He made his league debut on 22 February 2025, coming on as a 77th-minute substitute in a 1–1 draw against SC Paderborn.[13] That season, he featured in 20 matches for Hannover 96 II in the 3. Liga, scoring four goals and providing three assists, and made one appearance for the first team in the 2. Bundesliga.[12] On 27 June 2025, his contract was extended by one year, until 30 June 2027.[12]
2025–present: First-team breakthrough
Chakroun broke into the first team during the 2025–26 season,[2] under coach Christian Titz.[14] He scored his first goal and provided his first assist for Hannover 96 on 28 September 2025,[4] helping his team defeat Arminia Bielefeld 3–1 in the 2. Bundesliga.[15] Chakroun's season ended prematurely, after suffering a dislocated shoulder on 3 May 2026 against Preußen Münster.[14][16] In 21 league appearances, he scored twice and provided two assists.[14]
Chakroun's first appearance after recovering from his injury came on 22 August 2026, as a half-time substitute in a 9–1 win against SV Hemelingen in the 2026–27 DFB-Pokal.[17]
International career
Born in Hanover, Germany, to Lebanese parents,[2] Chakroun was eligible to represent both Germany and Lebanon at the international level.[11] His father was born in Lebanon, and Chakroun has said that his parents' home village was happy to see him represent the country.[2]
Chakroun received his first call-up to the Lebanon national team on 5 November 2024 for friendly matches against Thailand and Myanmar.[18] He made his international debut on 14 November 2024, starting in a 0–0 draw against Thailand,[19] and scored his first goal for Lebanon on 25 March 2025, in a 5–0 win over Brunei during the 2027 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers.[20]
Style of play
Chakroun primarily operates as a left winger and is noted for his speed and technical ability.[18][7] Neue Presse has described him as a "dribbler" and a "street footballer", highlighting his speed and dribbling.[3] Chakroun stated that "[his] greatest strength is [his] dribbling, especially in one-on-one or one-on-two situations".[7] Although primarily an attacking player, he has also been deployed in central midfield on occasion.[7][21]
