Rasoul Khatibi (Persian: رسول خطیبی) is an Iranian former footballer and coach who currently manages Azadegan League team Aluminium Arak. He is the younger brother of Hossein Khatibi, who is also a football manager.
Khatibi has played for Iranian national teams of various age levels. He was a constant member of the Iran Olympic team during his time in Teraktor Sazi and Pas, but despite the talent on the team, they were never successful. He gained his first international cap on 15 February 1999 versus Kuwait. His appearances for the national team have been inconsistent, but due to his good form in the 2005–06 season he was called up to the main squad which headed to Germany for World Cup 2006. He has 24 caps and 5 goals for the national team.
