Miralem Sulejmani (Serbian Cyrillic: Миралем Сулејмани, pronounced [sulějmani]; born 5 December 1988) is a Serbian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Swiss club Young Boys and the Serbia national team.

When he signed for Ajax in 2008, he became the most expensive football player to have ever been purchased by a Dutch club. Over the course of seven seasons he amassed Eredivisie totals of 137 games and 44 goals. In 2013, he moved to Benfica where he won five major titles in two years.

Sulejmani was born in Batajnica, Belgrade. He is of ethnic Gorani descent (from Gora in southern Kosovo). His paternal family moved to Batajnica in 1948. His father also played football, for OFK Beograd and GSP Poleta. His favourite players are Thierry Henry and Cristiano Ronaldo. His best friend is Danko Lazović. In 2010, he met his girlfriend Vesna Mušović. He became a father to a son in October 2011.

Sulejmani was born in Belgrade, Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. His father Miljaim played at OFK Beograd, and the son's first club was local FK BSK Batajnica, before he moved to FK Partizan at the age of 11 to complete his formation.
