Mohammed Mahmoud Ghaddar (Arabic: محمد غدار; born January 1, 1984 in Lebanon) is a Lebanese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Liga Super club, Johor Darul Ta'zim FC and a member of Lebanon national team.
Ghaddar started his career with Nejmeh in 1998 as a 14-year-old. After graduating from the youth academy he made his first-team debut two years later and was a member of the squad that claimed the 1999–00 season title, which was the club's first Lebanese Premier League title for over 20 years. Over the course of the decade Ghaddar went on to claim another four league titles and pick up successive league top-scorer awards while cementing his reputation as one of Lebanon's finest strikers.
Ghaddar signed for Bahraini Premier League side Al-Shabab for the 2009–10 season. On 18 March 2010 Ghaddar scored his first goal for Al-Shabab in a 3–1 win overMuharraq. Two weeks later he scored a double against Busaiteen in a 3–1 away win on 2 April. On 15 May, Ghaddar scored his second league double in a 2–1 win against Malkiya. His five goals in six games at the end of the 2009–10 season helped the club stave off relegation to the second division.
Ghaddar signed a four-year-contract with Egypt's Al-Ahly for the 2010–11 Egyptian Premier League season, become the first Lebanese player to sign for the Egyptian team. Ghaddar debuted for Al-Ahly on 6 August 2010 in a 0–0 draw with Ittihad El-Shorta where he was substituted onto the field for Mohamed Talaat on 76 minutes. He made one appearance for Al-Ahly during the 2010 CAF Champions League group stage on 12 September 2010 in a 2–1 win against Nigerian side Heartland F.C. where he was substituted onto the field for Mohamed Fadl on 76 minutes. Ghaddar was released by the club after just six months of his handful of appearances.
