Mohammed Abdulbasit () (born 19 October 1995) is a professional Emirati footballer who operates primarily as a defensive midfielder for Al-Nasr.

Al Ahli

Abdulbasit commenced his football journey within the Al-Ahli youth academy, entering the system at the age of 10.

Ajman (loan)

When he was 18, Abdulbasit was loaned out to Ajman for a six-month period in 2014, marking his senior debut in the Arabian Gulf League on 7 February during a 1–0 victory against Al Jazira. Receiving commendations from coach Abdulwahab Abdulqadir, he played a pivotal role in breaking Ajman’s 11-game streak without a win. Throughout that loan spell, he featured in eight matches as Ajman secured the 10th position in the 2013–14 campaign.

Al Wahda (2014–19)

In September 2014, Abdulbasit moved to Al Wahda as part of an agreement that saw defender Essa Santo transfer to Al Ahli. He made his first appearance for Al Wahda on 15 December in a 2–1 defeat to Al Ahli and earned his inaugural full league start in a 2–0 triumph over Al Nasr. His contributions were vital as Al Wahda concluded the 2014–15 season in fourth place.

During the 2015–16 season, Abdulbasit played an important role in helping Al Wahda finish third, thereby qualifying for the AFC Champions League. That year, the club also claimed the Arabian Gulf Cup title, with Abdulbasit participating in the final to secure their first trophy after a four-year drought.

He cemented his status as a regular starter over the following seasons and made his AFC Champions League debut on 7 February 2017 against Al Wihdat. In that same year, Al Wahda captured the UAE President's Cup with Abdulbasit significantly involved.

The 2017–18 season yielded further achievements: Al Wahda won the Arabian Gulf Super Cup, where Abdulbasit started in the 2–0 win over rivals Al Jazira. He netted his first professional goal during an Arabian Gulf Cup match, contributing to a 4–2 victory against Emirates Club. Additionally, he played the entirety of the Arabian Gulf Cup final as Al Wahda overcame Al Wasl 2–1 to clinch another domestic cup double. Although finishing second behind champions Al Ain in the league, these trophies highlighted his influence on the team.

Prior to the start of the 2018–19 season, Abdulbasit added another Arabian Gulf Super Cup to his accolades following a penalty shootout victory over Al Ain after a thrilling 3–3 draw. The club finished third in the league that season, earning qualification for the AFC Champions League Qualifiers.

Sharjah (2019–25)

Ahead of the 2019–20 campaign, Abdulbasit transferred to Sharjah, who were reigning champions of the Arabian Gulf League, for an undisclosed transfer fee. He agreed to a three-year contract and soon helped Sharjah secure the Arabian Gulf Super Cup by defeating Shabab Al Ahli Dubai Club on penalties. During his first AGL season with Sharjah, he made 14 appearances before the competition was curtailed due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

Al-Nasr (2025–)

Before the commencement of the 2025–26 season, Abdulbasit joined current champions Al-Nasr on a free transfer.
