Youssef Mouihbi (Arabic: يوسف المويهبي, born 1 April 1985 in Tunisia) is a retired Tunisian footballer who played attacking midfielder for 5 professional teams, including AS Marsa and Club Africain, and the Tunisia national football team.[1][2][3]

Mouihbi played for AS Marsa Football Academy Academy beginning in 1993 before going professional with the club in 2004.[citation needed] He played for Marsa until 2006, when he signed with Club Africain.[4][5] He played in the CAF Champions League while there and helped win Tunisian Ligue during the 2007—2008 season.[1][6] He left Africain six years later and moved to Kuwait to play for Al-Qadsiah in Kuwait.[4] He returned to Tunisia a year later and re-signed with AS Marsa.[7] In 2014, he joined ES Sahel[4] and earned his coaching license from the Confederation of African Football.[8] He was part of the teams that won the CAF Confederation Cup and the 2013—2014 and 2014—2015 Tunisian Cups.[9][10][11] He stayed with Sahel for two seasons before going abroad again, this time to Lebanon to play for Al-Ahed SC.[12][13] While there, he helped win the 2016–17 Lebanese Premier League.[1] In 2017, he again returned to Marsa.[1] He worked with the organization to establish Mouihbi Académie, a football school for kids.[14] He retired in 2019.[15]

After retiring, Mouihbi finished his Baccalauréat degree in economics and management, which he set aside in 2004 to pursue football professionally.[15][16][2] He expressed interest in enrolling in University of Jendouba's Higher Institute of Sport and Physical Education but was unable to do so while playing professionally.[3]
