Fahad Thani (born 1 December 1973) is a Qatari former player in football and the current director of the Qatar Olympic football team. Thani is a coach, primarily for youth teams and the Qatar U-17, was selected as the successor to Paulo Autuori as head coach of the Qatar national team in January 2013.

The first loss for his team was against Bahrain on March 18 in an away game for the 2015 AFC Cup qualifiers. Qatar was then beaten 1-2 by South Korea in an away match on March 26 due to a goal that came in the final minute after injury for Qatar.
