Ali Jasim joined the defending Iraqi Premier League champions Al-Shorta during the 2019–20 season under coach Abdul-Ghani Shahad, although the season was later abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He made his debut for Al-Shorta in the 2020–21 Iraq FA Cup, coming off the bench in a 5–0 win over Al-Khalis on 17 November 2020.[5] Under Serbian coach Aleksandar Ilić, Jasim made one start and eight substitute appearances in the 2020–21 Iraqi Premier League as Al-Shorta finished in fourth place, and also reached the semi-finals of the Iraq FA Cup.[5]
On 28 December 2021, Jasim signed for Al-Kahrabaa.[6] Under coach Luay Salah, Jasim scored four league goals in the 2021–22 season and a further six in the 2022–23 season, where Al-Kahrabaa finished in fifth place, the joint-highest league finish in their history which saw them qualify for the AFC Cup.[7] Jasim also helped Al-Kahrabaa reach the Iraq FA Cup final in 2022, playing the first 60 minutes of the final, which Al-Kahrabaa lost 2–1 to Jasim's former club Al-Karkh.[8]
After Jasim's impressive performances for the Iraq U-20 team, Jasim was close to signing for K.A.A. Gent in Belgium,[9] and also generated interest from Turkish clubs Trabzonspor and Antalyaspor, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano.[10]
On 20 July 2023, Jasim officially signed a three-year contract with Süper Lig side Antalyaspor.[11] However, Jasim terminated his contract by mutual consent after only two days at the club for personal reasons, and returned to Al-Kahrabaa in Iraq.[12][13]
On 2 August 2023, Jasim signed for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya on loan from Al-Kahrabaa.[14] He scored two goals on his debut in the 2023–24 AFC Champions League group stage in a 2–2 draw against Sepahan, and scored again in the next group match against AGMK in a 2–1 win.[15] This made him the youngest player in history to score three goals in one AFC Champions League season at 19 years old.[16] He scored his fourth goal of the campaign in a 2–0 win over Saudi Pro League champions Al-Ittihad.[17]
On 24 July 2024, Jasim signed for newly promoted Serie A side Como on a three-year contract.[18]
Jasim participated with the Iraq U-20 team at the 2023 AFC U-20 Asian Cup. Jasim scored the winning goal in the quarter-final against rivals Iran, which qualified Iraq for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[19] Jasim scored again in the semi-final against Japan, which Iraq won on penalties to reach the final, with Jasim also scoring a penalty in the shootout. Iraq were beaten 1–0 by hosts Uzbekistan in the final and thus took second place in the championship.[20]
Jasim participated in all three of Iraq's matches in the U-20 World Cup, where they lost 0–4 against Uruguay and 0–3 against Tunisia, and drew 0–0 with England, thus being eliminated at the group stage.[21][22]
On 26 June 2024, Jasim was named in the Iraq U-23 team for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Jasim came on as a sub in the maiden game against Ukraine, to score the winner in the 75th minute.
