Club career

A youth academy graduate of Viktoria Köln, Amyn made his professional debut on 13 March 2021 in a 3–1 league win against MSV Duisburg.[2] This made him the youngest player to appear in a professional match for the club in its history.[3][4]

On 1 September 2022, Amyn joined the under-21 team of Eredivisie club Feyenoord.[5]

International career

Amyn has represented Germany at youth level. In 2020, Qahtan Chathir called up the player to represent Iraq's youth team, and on many occasions in 2021, new manager Emad Mohammed sent invitations to the player but he rejected and maintained his desire to represent Germany at youth level. On 31 March 2023, Amyn announced his desire to represent Iraq's youth team as they go into the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup and the manager Emad Mohammed has asked the Iraqi FA to request FIFA to switch Amyn's international eligibility.
