Issam Jebali (Arabic: عصام الجبالي; born 25 December 1991) is a Tunisian professional footballer who plays as a forward or a winger for J1 League club Gamba Osaka and the Tunisia national team.[2]

Club career

Jebali signed with Värnamo in 2015 before signing with Elfsborg in July 2016.[3] In August 2018 he signed for Rosenborg.[4] In January 2019 he signed for Al-Wehda.[5] Al-Wehda and Jebali received criticism from Rosenborg as a response to Al-Wehda appearing to announce the signing of Jebali before a deal with Rosenborg was actually finalised.[6]

On 30 July 2019, it was confirmed that Jebali had joined Danish Superliga club Odense Boldklub on a three-year contract.[7] In September 2020, he scored four goals in three matches, and his performances led to him being named as the Danish Superliga Player of the Month.[8]

On 5 January 2023, Jebali officially joined Japanese side Gamba Osaka for an estimated transfer fee of 7.5 million Danish krones (around one million euros), signing a three-year contract with the club.[9][10][11]
