Fuad Anwar Amin (Arabic: فؤاد أنور أمين) (born October 13, 1972) is a former football defender from Saudi Arabia. A former captain of the national team, he played at the World Cups in 1994 and 1998. On club level he played mostly for Al-Shabab and Al-Nasr in his home country.

He achieved national fame after becoming the first Saudi to score in the world cup finals in the 2-1 defeat against the Netherlands during World Cup 94.

In the 1994 World Cup he scored two goals and helped Saudi Arabia advance from group including a header against The Netherlands and a spectacular long range effort against Morocco although the goalkeeper should have kept it out.
