Sanel Jahić (born 10 December 1981) is a Bosnian footballer who last played for Levadiakos in Greece. He is best known for being a utility player, capable of playing a wide number of positions. Although largely employed as a centre-back on the club level, he has also played on the side of the field as a wingback for the Bosnian national team, and has even filled in at various positions in midfield (specifically as a defensive midfielder and on the right). Jahić has also had success as a striker, leading the Bosnian Premier League's scoring charts in the 2006–07 season.
Jahić was born in Strasbourg, France. He grew up there and started playing football also. He played for youth squads of RC Strasbourg and FC Sochaux-Montbéliard before moving to Bosnia and Željezničar Sarajevo in 2001. Later, he played for Las Palmas and Mérida UD in Spain. Then he returned to Željezničar Sarajevo and in January 2008 he moved to Aris Thessaloniki in Greece. Two years later he transferred with AEK Athens. On summer of 2011 he signed with Cypriot club APOEL. With APOEL he participated in UEFA Champions League group stages for the first time in his career and he helped his team to reach the Last 16 of the competition. In January 2012, he moved from APOEL to the Turkish club Karabükspor for a transfer fee of €300K.
