Abdellah Zoubir (; born 5 December 1991) is a French professional footballer that plays as an attacking midfielder or a winger for Azerbaijan Premier League club QarabaÃÂ.
Zoubir started out his senior career at Grenoble, after which he went on to compete professionally in Scotland, Romania and Azerbaijan, respectively. In the latter country, he aided QarabaÃÂ in winning four national titles and one national cup.
Born in Lille of Moroccan descent, Zoubir started playing futsal in his native city at the age of 6. He represented France at youth level in that sport, sharing teams at one point with Wissam Ben Yedder. In 2012, Zoubir signed for Istres in Ligue 2. He was loaned in January 2013 to lower league club Grenoble.
In August 2013, Zoubir joined Scottish side Hibernian on loan after being recommended by former footballer Frédéric Arpinon. He made his first start for his new team in a Scottish League Cup match against Stranraer on 24 September, also scoring the second goal in a 5âÂÂ3 win. However, after the departure of manager Pat Fenlon, he did not seem to enter the plans of new coach Terry Butcher, coming on mostly as a substitute.
An ankle injury kept Zoubir out for five months, and he ended the season (which ended in relegation after 15 years) with 16 matches and one goal all competitions comprised. He subsequently returned to Istres, now in the Championnat National.
On 24 June 2015, Zoubir joined Romanian side Petrolul PloieÃÂti on a three-year contract. He made his Liga I debut on 11 July, playing the full 90 minutes in a 0âÂÂ0 draw at defending champions FC Steaua BucureÃÂti; he adapted quickly, being voted Footballer of the Month for July by fans on the DoarPetrolul.ro forum. He netted his first goal for the club on 9 November in a 1âÂÂ1 home draw against Concordia Chiajna, and his second came against CFR Cluj late in the same month (1âÂÂ0, also at the Ilie OanàStadium).
During early December 2015, it was reported that Bucharest rivals Steaua and Dinamo were interested in acquiring Zoubir in the winter transfer window.
On 26 June 2018, Zoubir signed a two-year contract with QarabaÃÂ.
On 29 June 2024, Zoubir signed a new three-year contract with QarabaÃÂ.
As of August 2025, Zoubir is captaining the club from Agdam.
He is considered as one of the best players in QarabaÃÂâÂÂs history.
