==Club career==
===Early years===
Born in [[Namangan Province]], Akhmedov began playing football in reserve side of [[Pakhtakor Tashkent FK|Pakhtakor Tashkent]]. After two seasons, he joined the first team and won the [[Uzbek League]] twice with the club.<ref>{{cite web|publisher=sportportal.uz|script-title=ru:Одил Ахмедов: "Наша цель&nbsp;– участие в чемпионате мира"|author=Tashhodzhaev, Zohir|url=http://www.sportportal.uz/page/football/paxtakor/756|language=ru|date=29 April 2008|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111004233256/http://www.sportportal.uz/page/football/paxtakor/756|archive-date=4 October 2011}}</ref>

===Pakhtakor===
He made his official debut for the first-team of Pakhtakor on 16 May 2006 aged 18, in an [[Uzbek League]] away match against [[Qizilqum Zarafshon]].

It was revealed by [[FC Pakhtakor|Pakhtakor]] that Odil Ahmedov had received offers from foreign clubs such as the [[Russian Premier League]] members [[Krylia Sovetov Samara]] and [[FC Dynamo Moscow]]. But ''Pakhtakor'' officials believed that Odil Ahmedov deserves a better offer referring to the top European clubs such as the ones from [[Premier League|England]], [[La Liga|Spain]], [[German Bundesliga|Germany]], [[Serie A|Italy]], and [[Ligue 1|France]].{{Citation needed|date=January 2011}}

After his stunning performance at the [[2011 AFC Asian Cup]], a lot of clubs showed interest in him, for example the Russian teams such as [[Rubin Kazan]], [[Anzhi Makhachkala]], and [[Lokomotiv Moscow]], Spanish side [[Málaga CF]], English side [[Bolton Wanderers]], French side [[AS Monaco]], Saudi side [[Ittihad FC|Al-Ittihad]], Ukrainian sides [[Dynamo Kyiv]] and [[Metalist Kharkiv]], and the Turkish side [[Beşiktaş J.K.]] The highest prices were from the Saudi side [[Al-Shabab Riyadh|Al-Shabab]] who have offered 8 million euros, and the Qatari side [[Al-Gharafa Sports Club|Al-Gharafa]] offering 12 million euros.

Since the European transfer window closed on 31 January, Odil Akhmedov could not play in a European club till the summer transfer window opens. He still have had the offer from [[Al-Shabab Riyadh|Al-Shabab]] for 8 million euros, and [[Al-Gharafa Sports Club|Al-Gharafa]] for 12 million euros, he needed to make his decision before the clubs canceled their offer, or else he might be left at his current club [[FC Pakhtakor|Pakhtakor]].

There were rumours that Odil Akhmedov was seen in front of the [[Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors|Jeonbuk]]'s office.
