Yassin Mikari plays as a left defender for FC Luzern. He was born on 9 January 1983 in Zurich, Switzerland.
The player’s youth career began in 2001 when he signed his first professional contract with Grasshopper. Over a period of two years from 2001 till 2003 he seldom appeared in the starting lineup. The fact that the defender featured only in 5 matches in two years speaks volumes.
In 2003 Yassin received a call-up from FC Luzern. He was offered to join the club on favourable terms. Moreover he was promised to become Luzern’s regular. For Mikari it was really important to gain permanent playing practice. In the summer of 2003 he signed a contract with Swiss club and officially joined the major team squad. During the season the player became an integral member of defence making 40 appearances for the club. For the French footballer the 2003/04 season was highly productive as he managed to score 9 goals.
In 2005 the defender earned another call-up. This time it was FC Winterthur that also plays in the Swiss Super League. The player agreed to join the club for a year and a half and played for it until 2006. During that period he netted 4 goals in 57 appearances for the club.
In 2006 Mikari was given a chance to return to the club where his professional career started - Grasshopper. The club offered him both a place in the major squad and a lasting contract. The player was glad to come back to a familiar place and signed a contract without hesitation. During the 2007/08 season he participated in 45 matches scoring 1 goal.
In 2009 the defender attracted attention of Sochaux playing in Ligue 1. In January 2009 he signed a contract which saw him play for the French club until 2013. At that time he made a move to a Swiss club Luzern.
From 2002 till 2004 Yassin featured in 7 matches for the Switzerland national U-21 football team. Since 2004 he has periodically played for the Tunisia national football team and has appeared in over 25 matches.
