Redi Jupi (born 31 May 1974) is an Albanian footballer. He played in the central midfield for KS Dinamo Tirana and has 19 caps for the Albanian national team since his debut in 1995. Jupi is currently the manager of Albania U21 for the European Football Championship qualification.

Jupi appeared in 128 Turkish Super Lig matches during the three seasons he played for Diyarbakirspor.

On 11 August 2015, Jupi was appointed manager of the Albania U21 following the departure of Skënder Gega at Kuwaiti Premier League side Al-Jahra. His debut was a 1–1 home draw against Israel U21 in team's second qualifying match for 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship. After the match, he told the media that he was satisfied with the team's reaction.

The Albanian Football Association president Armand Duka created the 'Talent Office' in 2011 and named Jupi as the head of the new department to scout young Albanian talent all around the world and convince them to represent Albania. From 2012 onward he was appointed as the Director of the National Teams Department in the AFA.
