Moanes Dabour (or Mu'nas Dabbur, Arabic: مؤنس دبور, Hebrew: מואנס דאבור; born 14 May 1992) is an Arab-Israeli footballer who plays for Grasshopper Club Zürich in the Swiss Super League on loan from Red Bull Salzburg, and the Israel national football team as a striker.
Dabour started his career in the Maccabi Nazareth and Maccabi Tel Aviv youth academies. He made his senior debut with Maccabi Tel Aviv on 2011. In 2011–12, he participated in 26 league matches for Maccabi, scoring eight goals.
In the 2012–13 season, he was part of the Maccabi team that won the Israeli league championship after a ten-year drought, providing the team with 10 goals in 26 matches. Dabour started the season providing two important goals on 27 August 2011 against Maccabi Haifa, goals that were described as "extremely crucial" for the rest of the season in the tight race for achieving the title.
Dabour ended the season after being injured for a one-month period during the warm up to the derby match against Hapoel Tel Aviv on 6 April 2013.
On February 4, 2014 Dabour confirmed his transfer to the Swiss Super League after Grasshopper Club Zürich paid a transfer fee of $425,000 to Maccabi Tel Aviv. On February 16, 2014 Dabour had his first appearance at Zurich, when he came on from the bench in the second half scoring two goal and assisting once, providing his team with the required attitude and skill to win the game with the score of 5-1 against St. Gallen. Dabour finished his deubt season at Grasshopper with nine goals and four assists in 15 league matches. The 2014-15 season was comparatively less successful but Dabbur still managed a healthy return, scoring 13 times in the league and 5 in the cup. He also provided 8 assists in the league, reaffirming his position as one of Grasshopper's best and most valuable players.
