Yashir Islame Pinto[1] (Arabic: ياسر إسلامي بينتو; born Yashir Armando Pinto Islame, 6 February 1991) is a professional footballer who plays as a winger for Thai League 1 club Police Tero.

Born in Chile, Islame represented his native country at youth level between 2009 and 2011. He switched allegiance to Palestine in 2016, when he made his senior debut.

Club career[edit]

He was born Santiago, Chile. Islame made his professional debut in Primera División de Chile on 28 June 2008 in an away match against Deportes Melipilla where Colo-Colo won 2–0. His first goal was against Fernandez Vial in the Colo-Colo victory of 4–2 in a match corresponding to the 2008 Copa Chile.[citation needed]

On 24 February 2012, Islame was loaned to FC Edmonton of the North American Soccer League on a season-long loan.[2] On 14 July 2021, he signed for newly promoted Khon Kaen United.[citation needed]

In 2022 he joined the team Negeri Sembilan FC on a free transfer. He has helped the team secure fourth place in the Malaysia Super League in 2022. He has made 14 appearances and scored 2 goals during his time with Negeri Sembilan FC.[citation needed]

In the first half of 2023, he played for Universidad de Concepción in the Chilean second division. In June of the same year, he left the team to move to Thailand.[3] In the second half of 2023, he signed with Thai League 1 side Trat FC.[4][5]

Islame was included in the Chile squad that played against Mexico in the Estadio Azteca on 16 May 2010, replacing the injured Esteban Paredes.[6]

In 2016, while playing in Curicó Unido, Islame made his debut for the Palestinian national team. He was selected in Palestine's squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Timor-Leste on 29 March 2016. Islame scored two goals in his debut.[7]
