Ismail Yunos is a Singaporean centre-back for S-League side, Young Lions and also the Singapore national football team.

He was part of the team that won the Tiger Cup in 2005 and the 2007 ASEAN Football Championship two years later. He was also part of the Singapore Under-23 team that took part in the 2005 Southeast Asian Games in Philippines and also won a bronze medal for the 2007 edition in Korat, Thailand.

Possessing a lanky frame and a composure belying his age, Ismail was called up by national team coach Radojko Avramovic into the Lions squad for the first time in September 2004 after a series of promising performances for the Under-18 and U-21 teams. But he only got his first team debut for the national side in December 2006, in the invitational tournament, Kings Cup held in Thailand, against Vietnam.

Currently, he is one of the more senior players at his current club, Young Lions.
