Yüksel Sariyar (born 1 August 1979) is an Austrian footballer of Turkish descent who plays for ASV Neufeld.
Sariyar came through the youth ranks at Austria Wien but he made his professional debut at Gençlerbirliği S.K. before joining LASK Linz in 2000. After 3 years in Linz he returned to Turkey for a year and then played three more years at SV Pasching before returning to Austria Wien for the 2007/2008 season.
Most commonly he plays as a central / defensive midfielder, but he has played as full back and right winger before. In summer 2008, he left FK Austria Wien for newly formed Austrian second-division side SC Wiener Neustadt – who are acquiring the playing licence of SC Schwanenstadt for the 2008/09 campaign – and is joined by Austria Wien team-mates Sanel Kuljic, Johannes Aigner and Saso Fornezzi. In January 2010 left SC Wiener Neustadt in the Austrian Second Division and signed for Slovakian side FK DAC 1904 Dunajská Streda.
He made his debut for Austria in February 2005 against Latvia and earned 13 caps, scoring one goal. He was however not considered for Austria's EURO 2008 squad.
