Ahmad Mostafa Hijazi (Arabic: أحمد مصطفى حجازي, Lebanese Arabic pronunciation: [ˈʕaħmad ˈħʒeːze, -zi]; born 22 August 1994) is a Lebanese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Lebanese Premier League club Sagesse.

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.[3] He was sent on loan to Ansar on 23 January 2020, to compete in the 2020 AFC Cup.[4]

On 9 July 2020, Hijazi joined Ansar permanently on a five-year deal.[5][6] 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.[7] Hijazi also helped Ansar win the double, beating Nejmeh in the 2020–21 Lebanese FA Cup final on penalty shoot-outs.[8]

On 31 March 2023, Hijazi moved to Safa.[9] He was sent on a two-month loan to Nepal Police Club for the remainder of the 2023 Martyr's Memorial A-Division League season.[10] Hijazi was then loaned to Dhangadhi in the 2023–24 Nepal Super League, played between November and December 2023, where he scored four goals and helped the team reach the final.[11] Hijazi and Safa mutually agreed to terminate the contract at the end of the season.[12]

On 29 August 2024, Hijazi moved to Bourj.[13] He returned to Nepalese club Dhangadhi on 23 February 2025 ahead of the 2025 season,[14] and scored a brace on 1 April 2025 against Butwal Lumbini in the opening game.[15] He helped Dhangadhi finish third, and was crowned topscorer of the season with five goals in seven matches.[16]

On 6 April 2025, Hijazi joined Sikkim Premier League club Thunderbolt North United.[17]
