Mujahidin Ilyas (born 2 April 2002), also known as Muja Ilyas,[1] is an Indonesian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Championship club Persiraja Banda Aceh.[2]

Club career

Ilyas began his football career by playing in the regional non-professional leagues of Aceh, representing amateur sides including PSAB Aceh Besar and his hometown club PSLS Lhokseumawe.[2] His performances in the local competitions caught the attention of scouts from the province's highest-ranked professional club.[2]

On 12 August 2025, Ilyas officially signed a professional contract with Championship side Persiraja Banda Aceh ahead of the 2025–26 Championship campaign.[2] He scored his first professional goal for the club during a match against Adhyaksa Banten, securing a late-minute breakthrough that energized the home fans.[3][4] Following a solid rotation display, his contract was extended in July 2026 to keep him with the Laskar Rencong squad for the 2026–27 season.[5]
