Celine Abbas Haidar (Arabic: سيلين عباس حيدر; born 13 April 2005) is a Lebanese footballer who plays as a midfielder for Lebanese Women's Football League club BFA, which she captains, and the Lebanon national team. She previously played for Akhaa Aley and Safa, with which she won the 2022 WAFF Women's Clubs Championship.

With BFA, Haidar won the league in 2023–24; with the Lebanon under-18 team, she won the 2022 West Asian Championship. She sustained a head injury from shrapnel on 16 November 2024 during the Israeli invasion of Lebanon, and was placed in an induced coma.

Club career

Early in her career, Haidar played for Akhaa Aley. She then joined Safa and played for their U19 team in the 2020–21 Lebanese Women's U19 Football League, before moving into the first team in 2021. With them she took part in and won the 2022 WAFF Women's Clubs Championship. Throughout her time at Safa, she wore number 70. At the end of the 2021–22 season, Safa dissolved the women's team.

For the 2022–23 season, Haidar joined another Beirut team, BFA, wearing the number 20. In her first two seasons at BFA, Haidar made 33 Lebanese Women's Football League appearances and scored one goal, the team's first in a 10–0 victory over Helium Sports on 25 June 2023. She also played for BFA's U19 team, winning the U19 league. BFA won the senior league for the first time in the 2023–24 season, in a perfect season. Haidar was then made team captain in September 2024 when Syntia Salha left the club. Described as the pillar and cornerstone of the team, and an intelligent player, Haidar is focal in transition from defense to attack; her coach called her "Lebanon's Sergio Busquets".

International career

Internationally, Haidar has represented Lebanon in its under-18 and under-20 teams, including winning the 2022 WAFF U-18 Girls Championship. In 2024, she was selected to the senior team ahead of preparation for the WAFF Women's Championship. She had been set to make her senior debut against Iran in October 2024, but the Lebanese Football Association cancelled the match after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) began attacking Lebanon at the start of that month.

Injury

When the IDF began more intense shelling of Beirut in November 2024, Haidar and her family left their home in Chiyah in the south of Beirut to stay in Baakleen, in the mountains outside the city. Haidar had recently been named captain of her football team, and returned to the city regularly to train. On 16 November 2024 the IDF bombed Beirut's suburbs throughout the day. Haidar was at home in Chiyah when an IDF evacuation order was issued, and she left; her father also called her to make sure she received the warning, and she had messaged her mother. Though Haidar left the building, the airstrike was imminent and she was getting on her motorbike when the area was hit. She was hit in the head by shrapnel.

Haidar suffered "severe brain injuries, including multiple skull fractures and brain bleeding." She was taken to a hospital in Hadath that was then hit by an airstrike. She was transferred to the Saint George Hospital University Medical Center, where she underwent surgery to control the bleeding. On 16 November she was placed in an induced coma. She was in a stable condition for several days, before deteriorating on 20 November, when she suffered more bleeding on the brain, which was treated; she was reportedly stable again by 22 November.

A video of Haidar unconscious in the street, showing her injuries and a man screaming nearby, went viral on social media in Lebanon. Other social media responses included further calls for FIFA to suspend Israel from international football in response to their invasions, which have injured multiple footballers. There had been unconfirmed reports on 17 and 18 November that Haidar had fallen into a coma following surgery and then died, with BFA clarifying her condition to the press.
