Yeu Muslim (born 25 December 1998) is a Cambodian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Phnom Penh Crown and the Cambodia national team.

Club career

Yeu was promoted to the Phnom Penh Crown first team in 2015, winning a Cambodian League title in his first season.[1] He made his AFC Cup debut in 2017, playing in both legs of their 3–7 aggregate defeat to Home United.

In January 2020 he signed a two-year contract extension.[1] During the 2020 season, he was forced to spend time at right-back due to the number of talented midfielders on the squad.[2]

International career

Yeu represented the Cambodian national under-19 team at the 2016 AFF U-19 Youth Championship in Vietnam. He also played for the Cambodian national under-23 team at the 2019 Southeast Asian Games and the 2020 AFC U-23 Championship qualification phase.

He earned his first senior international cap for Cambodia on 9 March 2019, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 friendly loss to Bangladesh. He came off the bench for two appearances during the second round of 2022 World Cup qualification.
