Mohammad Reza Khalatbari (Persian: محمدرضا خلعتبری‎‎, born 14 September 1983) is an Iranian international football player who currently plays for Saipa F.C. He can play as attacking midfielder, winger and forward.

Khalatbari began his career with Shamoushak's youth teams and joined Aboumoslem in the summer of 2004. He helped Aboumoslem reach the Hazfi Cup final where they lost to Saba Qom on penalties.

After two years with Aboumoslem, in July 2006, he signed for Zob Ahan, where he played important matches and led his team to win the Hazfi Cup in June 2009. During the Summer of 2009, Khalatbari had a trial at FC Köln, however the manager (Zvonimir Soldo) stated that Khalatbari was "lacking physical strength" and that "he might be a problem in Germany",. He returned after his failed trial to become one of the most influential players in league and ACL in the 2009–10 season, where Zob Ahan reached the Champions League final for the first time in club history.

He left Zob Ahan in June 2011 and signed a contract with Al Gharrafa Qatar. After an unsuccessful half season at Al-Gharrafa, Khalatbari left the club in the winter transfer window.

In early 2012, he was moved to UAE Pro-League side Al Wasl during the winter transfer window which was under Diego Maradona's management. He was one of the key players in Al Wasl's run to the GCC Champions League final where Al Wasl lost to Bahraini club Al-Muharraq on penalties.
