Ahmad Mostafa Hijazi (Arabic: أحمد مصطفى حجازي, pronounced as /ˈʕaħmad ˈħʒeːze, -zi/; born 22 August 1994) is a Lebanese professional footballer who plays as a forward.

Club career

After spending three seasons on loan from Ahed—at Racing Beirut, Nabi Chit, and Akhaa Ahli Aley, respectively—Hijazi signed a permanent deal with Akhaa Ahli Aley in summer 2019.[1] He was sent on loan to Ansar on 23 January 2020, to compete in the 2020 AFC Cup.[2]

On 9 July 2020, Hijazi joined Ansar permanently on a five-year deal.[3] [4] On 24 April 2021, he helped his team win the 2020–21 Lebanese Premier League, their first league title since 2007—and 14th overall—scoring in a 2–1 win against rivals Nejmeh in the Beirut derby in the last matchday of the season.[5] Hijazi also helped Ansar win the double, beating Nejmeh in the 2020–21 Lebanese FA Cup final on penalty shoot-outs.[6]

On 31 March 2023, Hijazi moved to Safa;[7] on 26 April, he was loaned to Nepal Police Club on a two-month loan for the remainder of the 2023 Martyr's Memorial A-Division League season.[8] Hijazi and Safa mutually agreed to terminate the contract at the end of the season.[9]
