Laravel authentication problem with multiple guards - laravel

Question

im new to laravel and im trying to create login function with multiple guards. However when i insert the correct credentials in the form, it does not authenticate properly. I cant seem to find the problem with my login controller, any ideas?
This is my AdminLoginController
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
class AdminLoginController extends Controller
{
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('guest:admin');
}
public function showLoginForm()
{
return view('auth.admin-login');
}
public function login(Request $request)
{
// validate the form data
$this->validate($request, [
'admin_email ' => 'required|email',
'password' => 'required|min:8'
]);
//attempt to log the user in
if( Auth::guard('admin')->attempt(['admin_email'=>$request->admin_email, 'admin_password'=>$request->admin_password], $request->remember))
{
//if successful then send to their location
return redirect()->route('admin.dashboard');
}
//if fail redirect back to the login with the data
return redirect()->back()->withInput($request->only('admin_email','remember'));
}
}
This one is my form
#extends('layouts.app')
#section('content')
<div class="container">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-md-8">
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">{{ __('Admin-Login') }}</div>
<div class="card-body">
<form method="POST" action="{{ route('admin.login.submit') }}">
#csrf
<div class="row mb-3">
<label for="email" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Email Address') }}</label>
<div class="col-md-6">
<input id="admin_email" type="email" class="form-control #error('admin_email') is-invalid #enderror" name="admin_email" value="{{ old('admin_email') }}" required autocomplete="admin_email" autofocus>
#error('admin_email')
<span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
<strong>{{ $message }}</strong>

#enderror
</div>
</div>
<div class="row mb-3">
<label for="password" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Password') }}</label>
<div class="col-md-6">

</div>
<div class="row mb-3">

<label class="form-check-label" for="remember">

</label>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row mb-0">
<div class="col-md-8 offset-md-4">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">
{{ __('Login') }}
</button>
#if (Route::has('password.request'))
<a class="btn btn-link" href="{{ route('password.request') }}">
{{ __('Forgot Your Password?') }}
</a>
#endif
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

This one is the Model
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;
class Admin extends Authenticatable
{
use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;
protected $guard = 'admin';
public $timestamps = false;
/**
* The attributes that are mass assignable.
*
* #var array<int, string>
*/
protected $fillable = [
'admin_email',
'admin_password',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be hidden for serialization.
*
* #var array<int, string>
*/
protected $hidden = [
'admin_password',
'remember_token',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be cast.
*
* #var array<string, string>
*/
protected $casts = [
'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
];
}
Edited: This is my route
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Auth::routes();
Route::get('/home', [App\Http\Controllers\HomeController::class, 'index'])->name('home');
Route::prefix('admin')->group(function (){
Route::get('/login', [App\Http\Controllers\Auth\AdminLoginController::class, 'showLoginForm'])->name('admin.login');
Route::post('/login', [App\Http\Controllers\Auth\AdminLoginController::class, 'login'])->name('admin.login.submit');
Route::get('/', [App\Http\Controllers\adminController::class, 'index'])->name('home')->name('admin.dashboard');
});
my dd($request)
