Shimon Shenhar (19 September 1942 – 11 March 2012) was an Israeli football manager and footballer.
Shenhar was the son of Israeli footballer Otto Schlefenberg.[1]
After managing teams in Israel, Shenhar was appointed manager of the Federated States of Micronesia national football team, where he was described as a "local hero" and helped set up the Micronesia president's visit to Israel as well as help secure the release of an Israeli woman held in a Micronesian prison, with the Foreign Ministry claiming that a number of Micronesia's United Nations votes in favor of Israel could be attributed to Shenhar.[2] He was also described as "authoritarian style clashed with local customs".[3]
Shenhar was married and had four children.[1]
