Jamal Fakir (born August 30, 1982 in France) is a rugby league player for the Catalans Dragons club in the European Super League competition. A fiery, strong-running second-rower.
Fakir caught the attention of Super League and French rugby union sides before the Dragons' entry into Super League in 2006. After a strong debut season in Super League, Fakir's progress has been hampered by two serious knee injuries, firstly a ruptured patella tendon sustained in late 2006, and then cruciate ligament damage sustained in May 2007 which has ended his season. He remains one of the best players in the French side.
