Abdallah Jaber (Arabic: عبد الله جابر, Hebrew: עבדאללה ג'אבר; born 17 February 1993) is a professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Israeli Premier League club Maccabi Bnei Reineh. Born in Israel, he represented the Palestine national team.

Early life

Jaber was born in Tayibe, Israel, to a Muslim-Arab family.

His first international goal came in his 8th cap in a 2–0 friendly win vs. Pakistan. He scored his second goal in October 2017, in a 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification match against Bhutan.

At the 2015 AFC Asian Cup he was one of only two Palestine players to start and play every single minute of the tournament. His performances were widely regarded as one of the few highlights of an otherwise dour campaign that saw Palestine lose all three games.
