Youssouf Hadji (Arabic: يُوسف حجي) (born 25 February 1980 in Ifrane, Morocco) is a Moroccan footballer who plays as an attacker. He currently plays for Stade Rennais FC in Ligue 1, the top football division in France.
Hadji started his career at Nancy in Ligue 1 under the guidance of Laszlo Bölöni. Nancy were relegated to Ligue 2 in 2000, but Hadji remained loyal and played on for another three seasons.
In 2003, he decided to pack his bags and move to Corsica to play for SC Bastia in Ligue 1. After his old team were relegated at the end of his second season there, he reunited with Bölöni at Rennes. In Brittany, he wasn't a regular starter but contributed largely to their season with 3 goals and 3 assists.
He has an older brother, Mustapha Hadji, who is also an Moroccan international.
