Assile Toufaily (Arabic: أسيل طفيلي; born 16 August 1996) is a Lebanese former footballer who played as a midfielder. She also played futsal.

Club career

Toufaily became interested in football aged six, in 2002, after attending a game between Ansar and Nejmeh in Beirut with her father and younger brother. In November 2009, she took part in the "Football Festival" organised in Jordan by the Norwegian Football Federation. Toufaily signed her first contract a few months later in 2010, and played two seasons at Shabab Arabi's youth system.

She spent the following years with three other clubs (GFA, SAS and Safa). After having won two Lebanese Women's Football League titles with SAS in 2016–17 and 2018–19, Toufaily signed for Safa in 2019. During the 2020–21 season, she sustained an ACL injury, which forced her to retire in 2021.

International career

Toufaily played for the Lebanon national team.

Personal life

After her retirement as a player in 2021, Toufaily moved to Lyon, France, to study sociology of sport at Claude Bernard University Lyon 1.
