Habib Jafar (Arabic: حبيب حعفر), born in 1966, is a former Iraqi footballer. He was featured on the national team many times and is remembered for competing in various Gulf Cup competitions. In the 1988 Gulf Cup he was voted as the best player of the competition. He became a regular of the national team at a young age and was almost even called up for the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, but was thought to be to unexperienced by then-coach, Evaristo de Macedo.[1]
He spent his time with clubs in Iraq, and spent a 4-year spell in Qatar[2] with Al-Rayyan, Al-Ittihad (now known as "Al-Gharaffa"), and Al-Wakra, and in the latest part of his career, with Dhofar of Oman.
